Columbia Business School has an accelerated 16 month program. It is designed for people who do not want/need to do an internship. So it starts in Jan and you study through the summer (when you would normally do an internship). This 16 month program attracts people who may be one of the following - are not career changers, are being sponsored by their company, want to become entrepreuners, plan to go back to their home country etc.
I graduated from the Columbia Business School Acclerated Program - so if you wnat any more details feel free to ask.
