NYC Weekend Classes for MBA Class of 2026

We are excited to announce an opportunity to take a class on the Cornell Tech campus over a weekend this fall! These classes are open to both Ithaca-based and Johnson Cornell Tech Class of 2026 MBA students.

For these courses, registration is currently open, and you would enroll as normal via your Student Center. If you are interested in registering, please add it to your schedule via Student Center by the end of the full term add/drop period on Monday, September 8 at 11:59pm. Depending on availability, students will also have the option to add a class during second half add/drop which happens in October, before the weekend classes are held. Because these are arranged courses, there is a different drop deadline of October 20 at the very latest.

NYC Weekend Course Class Times

• Saturday, October 25, 8:30 am – 5:00 pm
• Sunday, October 26, 8:00 am – 12:00 noon

Students are required to attend all class sessions—you should not enroll if you cannot participate for both full days of class.

*This class is not the same as NBA 6130 Topics in Leadership: Women in the Workplace, so does not fulfill the Leadership Elective Requirement*
