Two new offerings from UpGrad:
Doctor of Business Administration from Edgewood College. RA and ACBSP, B&M university in the United States. 2 year program. Program tuition $22,500:
https://www.upgrad.com/us/dba-from-edgewood-college/
Joint MBA/DBA from Edgewood College. Can be completed in 2.5 years. Program tuition $30,000:
https://www.upgrad.com/us/mba-dba-edgewood-college/
Both programs indicate scholarships available for up to 50% of the course tuition.
I have looked at this a fair bit and have a few thoughts.
1) Edgewood does not currently offer a DBA either on campus or online. This was concerning, but I did find a page on the Edgewood website indicating they have entered into an agreement with upGrad.
2) I have poked around on upGrad’s website but haven’t found rules about who can pursue these programs (specifically if people in the US/US & Canada/North America/etc) are ineligible for admission or for the scholarships. I haven’t emailed about this.
The possibility of a DBA from and RA and ACBSP accredit school—even if the DBA isn’t ACBSP accredited specifically—for less than $12,000 is pretty darn tempting.
