New program rewards continuous enrollment with a 30% tuition discount for online MBA students who stay on track toward graduation.

Elizabethtown College’s School of Graduate and Professional Studies (SGPS) is expanding access to affordable graduate education through the recent launch of its Master of Business Administration (MBA) Advantage Discount Program, rewarding students who remain actively engaged in their academic journey.

Students admitted to the College’s online MBA program who maintain continuous academic progress will receive a 30% tuition discount on every MBA course they take throughout their degree program.

“Etown’s School of Graduate and Professional Studies is rethinking how tuition can become a strategic investment in student success rather than simply the cost of enrollment, Elizabethtown College Vice President for Enrollment Management, Marketing & Communications Keri Straub said. “This initiative reflects our commitment to making graduate education more affordable, accessible, and outcomes-focused while preparing graduates to make an immediate impact in their organizations and communities.”

To qualify, students must:

  • Successfully complete (at least) one MBA course in every consecutive subterm without skipping a subterm. Consecutive enrollment includes the fall, spring, and summer terms.
  • Remain continuously enrolled without stopping out or taking a leave of absence (excluding approved military service or documented medical leave).
  • Maintain good academic standing — a 3.0 or higher GPA.
  • Continue following the approved SGPS MBA degree plan.

Etown’s 36-credit MBA program is offered fully online and can be completed in as little as one year. The program provides a unique blend of practical, real-world business skills and forward-thinking knowledge designed to prepare graduates for career advancement in today’s competitive business landscape. 

Etown’s MBA program is also highly customizable, offering nine concentrations, including Data Analytics, Family Business and Entrepreneurship, Healthcare Administration, Non-Profit Leadership, Operations and Supply Chain Management, Strategic Leadership, Sports Management, and Wealth Management. 

Etown SGPS also offers a free, online, and on-demand MBA Fundamentals Course that helps students build confidence before beginning graduate coursework by strengthening their knowledge in four key areas: accounting, finance, economics, and math & statistics.

For more than 70 years, Etown SGPS has had a direct and positive impact on the workforce and economy of both Lancaster County and throughout the southcentral Pennsylvania region by offering convenient and flexible undergraduate and graduate degrees as well as micro-credential options specifically designed to meet the needs of busy working adults. Courses are taught by faculty who are working professionals in the fields in which they teach, ensuring that content is current and highly applicable.
