Here is a list of top 1 year programs:

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.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
