To apply to cross-register for an EMBA course, students must fill out the EMBA cross-registration form and send the completed document to Focrun Nahar at [email protected].

Select Business School Executive MBA offerings, excluding core courses, are open to all currently enrolled Columbia University, Teachers College, and Union Theological Seminary graduate degree candidates, as well as post-baccalaureate students in the School of Professional Studies (SPS). Note that while undergraduate seniors are permitted to enroll in fulltime MBA courses, they are not permitted to enroll in EMBA courses.
Executive MBA courses (B7000 Level) are primarily offered on the weekend, and are available on an exception basis for students who need to take weekend electives and have completed any pre-/co- requisites for the course. Cross-registration seats are offered on a space available basis after the EMBA selection process is complete. Note that not all EMBA courses will be available for cross-registration, due to issues of capacity and pedagogy, and there is no process for requesting seats in courses not included in the posted list of cross-registration course options.
In addition to our Friday/Saturday and Saturday offerings, we offer a small number of block week courses that generally meet 9AM-5PM on the dates indicated, as well as a small number of evening electives that generally meet weekly from 6-9PM. Please note that the course list indicates which format each course is offered on. Friday/Saturday and Saturday courses are each part of a menu which corresponds to their specific meeting dates/times. See the Friday/Saturday and Saturday schedule documents above for details on each menu's specific schedule.
Please Note:
Students who believe they have the appropriate background may take an exemption exam for Capital Markets & Investments. The exam is three hours and administered online. If you're interested in taking the Capital Markets exemption exam, please email Focrun Nahar ([email protected]) for access.
