One of the members on the sister board actually got into the program! While a few people I know didn't get into the program, but was offered 1/2 off for the courses, I think this is a great NA MBA option. They also have an Executive MBA option and there is a heftier fee for that as it's geared for professionals already working and may afford the program with tuition assistance/reimbursement. Again, if you can get into the program - it's FREE! I think this program has been mentioned before...

Quantic is interesting, afaik it is heavily geared toward working professional in technology. If you look at their alumni, that is where you would benefit the most from the networking effect.

That is tempting. They seem to require a lot of background like a very well rounded MBA too

I'm planning on pursuing this after my undergrad. As someone who is addicted to scrolling through stuff on my phone, their app-based platform is appealing to me.

I really like their platform and completed all their free courses years ago. I intend to apply after I graduate with my BS and keep applying until I get in lol. Really glad they got DEAC/NA and dropped the old name, Smart.ly MBA since there's no way anyone would take that seriously.

I was admitted to the EMBA (with a good scholarship, bringing the total price down to about $3k), from an MBA application. They are really looking for young professionals rather than mid-career professionals for the MBA. Both programs are essentially the same, and the learning platform is very good. You can actually do the whole thing from a smartphone in little tidbits each day. Brilliant pedagogy IMO.

do you guys think they will ever gain RA status? Quantic looks like a good online school but it's not fully accredited

It is “fully” accredited. It just has a different accreditation which is recognized by US Dept of Education...

It's absolutely "fully accredited." DEAC is a fully USDE recognized accreditor, and USDE itself makes no distinction between what was once called "national" and "regional" accreditors at this point.
