If payment will be via promissory note, please fax the registration form and company letter at the same time. Please note that we will not hold slots in any classes without the company promissory note. After we receive your registration and company letter, we will mail out the Assumption College promissory note for you to sign and return to the MBA Office. The original company letter should be mailed to the MBA Office shortly after you fax your registration.
All registrations must be paid in full by one of the above methods before they can be processed. If any of this documentation is missing, it will delay the processing of your registration, resulting in the possibility that your selected courses will fill up. Registrations will be date-stamped in the order they are received at the MBA Office, and preference will be given to matriculated students. Registrations that have missing information or documentation will be date-stamped when the information and/or paperwork has been received.
Any class that is designated "blended" has a course limit of 15. It is recommended to register early for these courses because these courses get filled within the first several days of registration. All other courses have a limit of 25.

You may fax (508-767-7252), mail, or drop off transcripts of all your course work to the attention of Dr. Jeffrey G. Hunter, Director, MBA Assumption, 500 Salisbury Street, Worcester, MA 01609.

You only need to establish special student status once. If you have already applied to the MBA Program, you may be able to take more courses as long as you notify the MBA Office.
PROMISSORY NOTES
MBA Assumption has payment agreements with many area employers. A promissory note enables you to register for classes. When paying in whole or in part with a promissory note, you will be required to submit a letter or authorization form from your employer at the time of each registration. You will also be required to sign an Assumption College promissory note at the time of registration, which can be obtained from the MBA Office in Desautels 017. The promissory note guarantees payment in case your employer defaults or you do not fulfill your employer's conditions for reimbursement. The Finance Office will send the bill to the student, and it is the student's responsibility to make sure the employer pays the the bill promptly.
Please note that registrations will not be processed until we receive the approval letter from your employer and a signed promissory note obtained from the MBA Office. You must pay any portion of tuition or fees not covered by the employer at the time of registration and before you begin classes. To inquire about promissory notes, call the MBA Office at
508-767-7170 or via email mbaoffice@assumption.edu.
