Does being a full time student versus part time impact mba admissions?

Hey everyone!

Would being a part time student for my senior year of college (taking 9 units versus the 13 units required to be a full time student) impact my elligibiltiy for mba schools down the line? Or would they not care?

I wasn't too familiar with the mba admission process and just wanted to cover my bases.

Thanks so much!

Ash
