Has anyone heard about Signum Magnum College Free MBA
#1
I am looking to complete an affordable MBA, not for financial gain or for employment. I came across this "free" MBA from Signum Magnum College. They offer a free MBA if you join their ambassador program and refer at least one person. I am from the US so I am unfamiliar about accreditation from European countries. Is this pyramid-schemy? Not sure. I went against my better judgement and applied with UoPeople and they tried to scam me. So they are a definitely a no go. Here is the link for the college Signum Magnum College

Sounds like if spam became a college. Remember, you get what you pay for.

Thanks for the advice but I know what is best for me and I know what I am looking for. I live in a small country town with tons of small businesses. The largest corporation is Walmart. I am in my 40s with an established career. I am looking for something formal and cheap. Nobody cares where I went to school. My life is established already, I have 2 master's degrees but need a business education. I have zero plans of moving to a large city to work in business for billion dollar corporations and no need to go thousands of dollars in debt. Not everything expensive is worth it.

Basically, if you think UoP is a scam, SMC may be worse... UoP is NA DEAC and they're tuition free, but there are fees that they'll ding you with and it'll sting as some fees combined will be making it more expensive than a degree at say UMPI if you can complete it in one session of $2350, or $4700 if you need two sessions for the MAOL...

It really depends on what you need and want, ss20ts is correct, you're getting what you pay for if you go with Signum Magnum College, as they're not properly accredited. They're not on par with ENEB in utility for the price... You missed the sale by a day, there was a gifting option for an MBA at $180 USD for ENEB MBA or a different Masters.

It doesn't even sound like an actual college. It's not accredited so how would it be useful? There are plenty of low cost routes for master's degrees. What makes you think some of us aren't speaking from experience of living in a small country town with tons of small businesses? I live in a town of 3500 people and all we have are small businesses aside from Walmart. Degrees still matter here. No one said anything about moving to a large city and no one said anything about going into debt.

Since you all have two master degrees, have you thought of earning a graduate certificate in business? Or even a certificate from Coursera or edx?

SMC is still accredited on Malta, but some of their degrees including this free MBA are not. Some European countries like Austria or Germany might have problems with accepting even those accredited degrees though, here is a link I got on Degreeinfo, that quite sheds light on that:
