Located in Smithfield, Bryant University focuses on delivering affordable and student-centric academics. The school's undergraduate catalog contains bachelor's degrees in social entrepreneurship, global supply chain management, Africana and Black studies, and legal studies. Learners can also enroll in a marketing analytics program, which trains them to analyze market, product, and consumer data to drive organizational decision-making and innovation. To help students diversify their studies, Bryant requires all business majors to complete at least one liberal arts minor. Graduate offerings include master's programs in communication, professional accountancy, and physician assisting. The university also offers a campus-based master of business administration that students can earn in one or two years. Alternatively, MBA candidates may obtain their credentials entirely online through a professional track that features five start dates annually. Bryant uses a test-optional policy that allows freshmen applicants to decide whether SAT/ACT performance accurately reflects their academic potential. Graduate admission requirements vary by program but generally include a minimum 3.0 GPA. The university automatically considers all admitted students for scholarships.
