All requests for seats in MBA courses should be directed to the respective Wharton academic departments (contact information below). The Registration Authorization Request form is no longer being used. Please do not contact the faculty as it will be the department coordinators who will be responsible for evaluating the requests and issuing any permissions to non-MBA students via Path@Penn.
Please request permission for MBA courses through Path@Penn by following the University Registrar’s “How to Request Permission to Take A Class” Quick Reference Guide found here.
Fall 2023 Timeline and Course Listing – the list of Fall 2023 MBA courses with seats available will be published after August 23rd. It will be updated as capacities change. Unfortunately, due to very high demand for our courses, if you do not see a desired class on the list, it means no seats are available for the non-MBA student population. Wharton MBA’s academic calendars can be found on MBA Inside.
Update 9/8/2023: The deadline to add into Fall 2023 full-semester and Quarter 1 MBA classes has passed. The updated list of Quarter 2 classes with seats available can be found below.
