PRESENTING: The best accelerated MBAs for getting your degree in less than 2 years

If you want an MBA from a top-tier school but don't want the spend the time or money on a full-length program, consider an "accelerated MBA."

These programs are shorter than two years (or even a year), and can come in at half the cost of the average business-school tuition. And you can complete them either during the evening, online, or in person.

Northwestern's Kellogg, Duke's Fuqua, and Emory's Goizueta School of Business are some of the top schools that offer this speedier degree alternative.
