Grades are due 1 week after the session ends. So yes, you'll be waiting until the session ends to get your grades. Same for everyone - doesn't matter when you finish your courses. You can always add extra courses during the session if you want something to do. You paid the $1400 so you might as well get your money's worth.

yep, you will be waiting. I had a little over 2 weeks left in the term when I finished my last class. In hindsight I wish I had tried to knock out a minor in accounting but it would have required 4 accounting classes in 2 weeks and I don't think I'm capable of that lol.

When you take final assessments with exams, are you able to see if you passed with 80% right after the exam or you have to wait for that too?

Most institutions will require a combination of assessments, exams, written work for review... so, you should compare not only the accreditation, but the program contents and see if the subjects that are taught are what you're interested in. Most MBA programs will have very similar in content or course subjects, but some will be geared towards other concentrations, find your concentration of choice... you should also compare the costs, time, etc to get a bigger overview, with that more details, it'll be clearer to decide.

You can see you score from an exam right away. That's not necessarily your final grade. The professors have some leeway in the grading. For example, in one course I scored an 94 on the exam and was given an A+.
