Will your degree and transcripts say "MBA Top-up" or just "MBA" ?

No institution issues a transcript stating "MBA Top-up." The OTHM Level 7 Diploma is a standalone qualification, not a degree. Upon completion, your transcript reflects the Level 7 Diploma in Strategic Management and Leadership. To earn an MBA, you must progress to a partner university for the final top-up module. Only after passing that specific university module will your final degree certificate and transcript display "Master of Business Administration." The OTHM diploma serves as the academic bridge, providing 120 credits toward the 180-credit master’s requirement. It is crucial to distinguish between the regulated diploma certificate and the final university-awarded degree. Always verify the specific naming convention with your chosen university partner, as titles vary.
