Walden is expensive. I will tell you that it's a for-profit university before Rebel100 runs in here. Amberton is affordable, but they don't accept financial aid if that matters to you.

I'm always happy to complete the free application waiver for those applying to WGU (I get a free gift from WGU for this). Just PM me your first/last name and a valid email so I can complete their form.

Your predictable rant about how expensive for-profits are untrustworthy because their main goal is to profit as much as possible off of financial aid. hilarious

In what state do you live? Sometimes you can find great online programs (instate tuition) in your state.
Are you aware that Amberton University does not participate in any type of federal financial aid program. If you intend to "pay as you go" that is fine but if you intended to finance your education with a Title IV loan that might be a factor.
You might want to consider Missouri State University - and yes I'm biased because I'm attending there. A little known fact is their online courses are at the cost of "instate tuition" which is $275 per credit our. There is an extra $32 per credit hour fee for COB courses. 36 credit hours (seminar option) times $307 is a very reasonable $11,052 and MSU is AACSB accredited (if that kind of thing is important to you).
Detailed Costs and Fees - Office of the Registrar - Missouri State University
Course Requirements - Master of Business Administration - Missouri State University
Sorry, I'm giving you information you did not request. I know nothing about those other schools.
Don't miss out on something great just because it might also be difficult.

Hi. I got my MBA through Amberton and loved their program. The teachers I had were extremely professional and had practical working experience in their subject areas. The school's customer service and advisors were responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend Amberton. Oh, and it was affordable! Although I did not attempt to access any funding or loans -- I just paid as I went. Let me know if I can help and best of luck to you.
