Capella sent me an email with a coupon code to waive the application fee for the MBA program, and I thought "why not?"
I had not previously applied to any "for-profit" schools, so I filled out the application for sh**s and giggles.
2 hours later, I had already completed the application, admissions interview, application for a $3000 "grant", requested COSC transcripts (capella picked up the tab for fees), financial aid, and been granted provisional status to enroll (pending receipt of official transcripts).
It's amazing how fast they rush you through the process. An applicant doesn't even have time to stop and think about what they're doing (which I'm sure is the point).
It's unlikely that I'll enroll at Capella at this point....I'm not comfortable with the idea of it being said that I "bought" my degree from a private company. But it was an interesting experience.
