  • 3News has found that at least two different organizations have listed that Republican nominee Bernie Moreno earned a Master’s degree in Business Administration after graduating from the University of Michigan.
  • Moreno served on the board of the Cleveland Foundation from 2014-18, and the organization’s Fall/Winter 2014 magazine included that Moreno had earned a Master of Business Administration from Michigan…
  • Prior to this, a 2011 application included in a lawsuit about his car dealership in Florida also listed that he earned an MBA from Michigan in 1991.
  • But the university registrar’s office confirmed to 3News that the only degree Moreno has earned from the school is a bachelor’s degree.
  • So we can VERIFY that no, Bernie Moreno did not earn an MBA.
