I am at Northcentral Northcentral University | Online Degree Programs | Online Learning.
It is 10 courses long at a cost of 18.5K all said and done.
If you end up going with them, I will be your personal advisor so that is a bonus.

THIS WOULD BE A BONUS!!!

Don't know where I got National. That's a pretty affordable MBA. What is their accreditation?

[ryoder]

Regionally accredited by the North Central Association and the business school is accredited by the ACBSP.
This school is not for everyone as it is heavily research focused. You have to be able to do independent research via the school's numerous partnerships with online research libraries and produce well written papers.
You do get free smartthinking tutoring services with each class and those guys rock. They will rip your paper apart and help you improve it. I used them for my first class and once I got the hang of writing in a scholarly voice and using APA style for citations, I no longer required their services.
I will certainly use them for my dissertation work in my PhD, however.

If you want to know more about it, just PM me or ask here. I can answer any questions you have. The cool thing about them is that if you want to sign up as a non-degree seeking student to try it out, you can do so immediately.

I was signed up, enrolled and able to work on my first assignment within 30 minutes of calling. It is perfect for people like me with zero patience.

What did they require regarding pre-graduate work? For example there is a business undergrad core that ENMU requires like Micro and Macro Economics, Accounting, Business Finance, etc... I have some of it, but need 4-5 classes. I think Clep is ok to satisfy tem, but its still a bit of a drain to need 5 more tests even with my BS completed.

The MBA program at NCU requires a bachelors from an RA school, but your abilities in the program will be tested and reinforced in the SKS5000 course which covers the breadth of foundation knowledge in business at a fast pace.
If you have not studied business law, accounting, economics, management, marketing, information systems and statistics, this course will be difficult.

The book is almost 2000 pages and there are some online tests and long-ish papers to write. For me, the CLEP studying and straighterline.com accounting and ALEKs stats work I did was sufficient to fly through the course at a pretty fast pace working on it about 20-25 hours per week.
