There is a catch though!

You Can Now Take an Entire MBA Course Online for Free

Business-minded adults looking to squeeze in MBA classes will soon be able to skip the testing, paperwork, and interviews that entrance to business school usually requires and take all the classes that a full two-year MBA program typically offers. Perhaps the most important part: They can do it without paying a dime.

The University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign’s College of Business got the green light Monday evening to roll out a new MBA program, dubbed the iMBA, through online education platform Coursera. Over the coming months, the school will put all the courses required for its traditional MBA program on Coursera, free of charge. Students will be able to dabble in select courses or plow through the entire curriculum while earning certificates in such specializations as digital marketing, accounting, and business operations.

Like most free things, however, there’s a catch. While all the classes for the MBA will be available online, those who want an actual MBA from the University of Illinois, not just a certificate, will have to apply for admission to the full iMBA program and pay about $20,000 in tuition.
