Management Is a Skill. Treat It Like One.
Plenty of students want to “go into business.” Fewer want the specific work of planning, people, and operations.
Northwest University’s B.A. in Management sits in an ACBSP-accredited School of Business. Internships are required of business students. Faculty include practitioners. The campus is in Kirkland, next to companies that promote from inside.
Faith and ethics are in the curriculum. Typical actual cost after grants is $25,433 for 2025–2026.
