Read this before you rely on the numbers
- The main program page shows no price. A second Wharton page gives US$23,000 (excluding accommodation, travel and visa costs) and 9 months, while the main page says 9-12 months, so we show the main page length.
- Fees and start dates change with each cohort. Confirm both on the official page before you apply.
Who can make this work

You can set aside time across 9-12 months including the campus or in-person part, and you or your employer can cover USD 23,000.
