I think one person mentioned one class had a teacher who wanted 6 hours of zoom classes every week. It may have been an optional class, one not usually part of the MBA track.

Yeah, an optional class with Athens campus.
But, the Profs do have option in Nashua as well, none do that I had.
Once every couple weeks for an hour or two was normal in a couple of classes I did with Nashua campus. Nothing horrid at all. In fact, normally it was students talking made longer.. they were fun

Let me repeat, one course at TESU equals 3/4 of the writing required for the WGU MBA program.
I LOVED the TESU Business Capstone. I felt right at home in that course, so if WGU is anything like the TESU capstone, it would be perfect for me.

I went ahead and just decided to switch and do WGU. I'm going to attempt the one term and see if I can get it all in. I'm worried about the math aspect, but I'm going to study the reddit thread on those that have accelerated the MBA and do what they did step by step as my template.
The capstone that I did for my bachelor is going to hopefully work as the foundation of my Master's capstone.

While I love the HAU pricetag I'm really leaning to do WGU, or perhaps EU. Are there any tuition "coupons" like walden has from time to time for WGU or EU?
My pros are that there is financial aid and its competency based so there is a slight chance I may could finish in one term but definitely in two.
I'm really second guessing myself and need to have a solid MBA plan and soon.
Thanks for any and all feedback.
Interesting as I was down to these 3 schools for an MBA. However, I see no replies for EU and wanted to share my research. 10 classes, 10k price tag, non-profit private school. 1-2 classes per term but self paced. Can be completed in 10 months if you take 2 classes at a time with no pauses. It’s a newer program but seems well run and growing. If you are comparing to WGU, it may take longer than a 1 term WGU degree but would consider it of equal value.
My plans changed and I’m going to complete an MS degree now and then an MBA at a later date.

One thing that may be a big deal for some is the networking abilities. Not to mention the student services including career center which includes employment opportunities and resume services. WGU offers all of this. There's over 100,000 WGU graduates so the networking abilities can be amazing. You also get the perks of LinkedIn Learning and Udemy along with other perks free for life after graduation.
