Deciding to commit one year of your life to one of the most challenging, yet rewarding experiences you will ever endure is not something to take on without serious consideration. We encourage all interested candidates to learn as much about the Acton program as possible before applying by thoroughly reviewing the website, speaking with your admissions officer, attending information sessions and visiting class.

Information Sessions

We host information sessions throughout the year at our campus in Austin, Texas. During these sessions, we will engage you in a case-like discussion and an interactive alumni panel to showcase the program and its teachers. You will be able to speak with current students, alumni, teachers and friends of the program, ensuring you get the most well rounded understanding of Acton possible.

Campus Visits

Acton's revolutionary one-year MBA in Entrepreneurship is significantly different from any other traditional MBA program. To fully understand the student experience and to make sure Acton is right for you, we strongly encourage you to visit campus to see a class in action. That's the only way to be sure. In fact, in response to overwhelming feedback from our students about the importance of visiting class when considering Acton, all applicants are now required to observe class before applying. (If you are unable to visit class in person, you also have the opportunity to observe class online.)
