MBA Advise Please

by bintajpatel » Wed Dec 18, 2013 12:28 pm
I'm currently a 26 year old corporate accountant and CPA. My end goal is to be a controller and/or financial officer of a corporation and I know that although an MBA is not required for this, it can be helpful. Since I am not looking to change careers and instead looking to advance in my current path, I am considering the part-time/working professionals MBA route.

However, since part-time scholarships are few and far in between I was considering taking two years off to pursue a full-time MBA. I am hesitant to do full-time because I do not want to step away from my career/climbing the ladder for two years. Also, since I will be returning to the same industry I feel it unnecessary to step away from my job. I wanted to know what your thoughts are?
