Here is a list of top 1 year programs:
http://www.find-mba.com/board/4964

Note the 1 year MBA is more common in Europe than America, though many top American institutions offer the 1 year MBA. Many American programs require an undergraduate degree in business for admission to their 1 year program.

Best wishes,

Tatiana

Hi Tatiana,

Thanks a lot for the help.Just to let you know I have an undergraduate degree in business administration.Since I have only 15 years of education, (thats the norm in India) getting into the US schools would be a problem since most of them mandate 16 years as compulsory education.
Therefore would really appreciate it if you could assist me with a more comprehensive list of B-Schools (not just restricted to US and Europe) offering one year full time MBA program.

Best regards,
Saurabh

Most 1-year programs want candidates to have an undergrad business background. Since the program is accelerated (combining two years of study into one), they look for students that have a foundation in much of coursework (finance, acct, marketing, ect.)

Hi Suyog,
This forum is primarily for MBA programs, so I dont have too much information about undergrad programs. Also, I am not an expert in online MBA programs.

Sorry cant be of more help.

I believe many European MBA programs are one-year.
