One Year AACSB Distance MBA? - Prloko - 11-04-2013

So I have been looking around for an accelerated MBA program that is also AACSB accredited. So far, I only found one available completely by distance learning. That is Cleveland State's. The issue is it's over $30K and the GI bill will only pay up to in-state tuition.

Has anyone come across a distance MBA (at least mostly distance) that can be completed in 12-18 months that is also AACSB accredited?

I think Cleveland State is the first and only one that claims it can be completed in 12 months. You might be able to complete others in 18 months, but they don't advertise their programs that way. Most programs expect you to take two years, but you're allowed to take 9-12 credits per semester year-round.

I found this.

Students can take classes at their desired pace and graduate within 18 months to five years. Read more about the Online MBA at WKU.

Jacksonville State's program is only 30 credit hours if you have the foundation courses completed, so you might be able to finish it quickly.

Does that school have a yellow ribbon partnership with the VA? You may get away tuition free if so...

The school website says the school is a YR participant. When I spoke to the recruiter, he stated they were not particpating in the YR program. He gave me contact info for their financial aid guy. The recruiter may be correct that maybe the 1 year program does not participate or he may just be mistaken, but I'll contact the FA person directly and get a straight answer.
