The school also offers the possibility of combining the MBA with other masters including an MSc in Hotel Administration, Computer science, and Mathematical science.
Scholarships
UNLV’s Executive MBA students have several options to help manage the cost of their degree. Most students use federal student loans, starting with the FAFSA, which can qualify them for subsidized or unsubsidized loans through the Federal Direct Student Loan program, up to $20,500 per academic year. Additional funding is available through the Grad PLUS loan, which can cover the full cost of attendance, subject to credit approval. Loan repayment typically begins six months after graduation or if enrollment drops below half-time. Because timing matters, applicants are encouraged to submit the FAFSA by November 1 for priority consideration, using UNLV’s school code 002569. Students can also consult the Financial Aid & Scholarships office for guidance, and it’s smart to check with a tax advisor on potential deductions or employer support benefits tied to continuing education.
