Recommendation for competency-based MBA

Any recommendations for a competency-based MBA program? I'm aware of WGU, but I genuinely hate proctor exams. I prefer writing as I get overwhelmed with proctor exams. Also, please provide some feedback on your recommendation with the course workload. Thanks in advance for the assistance.

One ~4000 word paper per module/course.

Does it have to be an MBA? Would an MAOL work? From what I understand, it’s pretty similar in many regards.

Spending $5k for an MBA only to have it evaluated as a 4 year Bachelor's degree isn't idea. You can get actual MBAs for about that price. Or spend 1/10th the price and get an ENEB MBA: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/ENEB

Thank you everyone. I was really looking for a US college with ACBSP accreditation.
I'd love an MBA that's competency based without the proctored exams. I'd rather write papers. I personally HATE Examity and had issues with them when I was attending LSU. That's who WGU uses so I'm really considering looking elsewhere for my MBA. Capella has one, but it's Capella which doesn't have the greatest rep. Purdue Global is expensive. The terms are VERY short and I know how much work each course is in undergrad so I can only imagine how much work is in a grad degree there. Walden isn't an option in my state. They're not licensed to offer degrees here. I haven't found any other CBE MBA programs. Hopefully some day soon!
