Hellenic American University MBA: Overview of $3K RA MBA

[ReyMysterioso]

I'm sorry to pick on you, but this is a refrain I hear over and over again on this board, from many people, for many different programs. People can absolutely complain and criticize for whatever reason they want. The only way to have real feedback and discourse is to allow criticism. By dismissing valid criticism out of hand just because "They're cheap and small, what do you expect" we're doing a disservice to new people that want to hear all sides of an issue.

You'd be hard pressed to find any university that doesn't have some problem. None are perfect. You have to find whatever works best for you. Transferring is extremely common because we don't know how well of a fit a school or program will be until we're actually taking classes. And yes with inexpensive and small schools you do need to have a great deal of patients and resourcefulness. You need those two attributes in life and work as well.

I think I'm being misunderstood. I'll try to clarify once more.

The specific attitude I'm talking about is "of course ABC program is xyz because of this or that, if you don't like it you don't have to apply/attend/talk about it." I think that specific attitude (which I've mostly seen with ENEB, not to redirect) is what I have a problem with. I feel like valid criticisms are dismissed by zealots as "well if you're not 100% on board it's not for you, so shut up about it."

Maybe it's just me and maybe I'm seeing something that's not there, but that's just my 2 cents.

I think you are correct. The whole point of the board is to evaluate costs and opportunities - more often than not as they relate to board users' career goals. If we can ask questions and critically evaluate potential strengths and weaknesses, it will help forum users find the right fit for their goals. 
If we just shut down and don't talk about it, we're potentially missing opportunities (or pitfalls.)

I finished the capstone and two courses. I am done with my degree, I must say the capstone was not as easy as it looked. I had a total of 27 pages plus an IRB application done. In 7-weeks that took a lot of time in addition to the other two courses I took.

Congrats classmate! Proud of you. Yeah my "end it with a bang" of Capstone, last half of two courses from Athens campus and a 7 week course from Nashua was a bit much...The bang at one point was my head wanting to explode. But, we finished brother!

It's truly a spectacular value for the degree, but also for the learning.

Awesome work!  Congrats to finishing the degree!  I keep forgetting what an IRB is as I keep thinking that is IRS for some reason... and no, I did not evade on my taxes or anything *LOL*.  OK, I knew I asked about that before and it was answered here... https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Management?

The degree is a great value which you will learn in small class settings from 2-10 students max. Students are from all over the United States, Greece, and sometimes other countries. Professors are very knowledgeable some of them even having Doctorates or PhDs. I think it was worth my time doing the degree even if I did it as an extra degree, I learned a lot about business I never knew.

I I’m curious as to why I can’t seem to find a ranking on this university? I can’t find it on edu rank. Or anywhere else that I’ve looked . You would think where it’s a non profit  RA it should have some ranking.

It's a really small school - less than 500 total students in both undergrad and postgrad. Many of the websites and periodicals that have rankings are questionable. Some schools pay to be included on different lists. To me a school that's low key is a good thing - no drama.

of which the VAST majority are actually attending the Athens Campus, so that isn't going to even be ranked for the states.. because not in.
