Most of you probably do not know me, but I was regular on here about 2 years ago. I completed my bachelors at Excelsior in October of 2008, mostly through testing...
Well... after finishing at Excelsior, I went right into an MBA program at Jacksonville State University. I chose JSU because they are an AACSB accredited school and the cost was very low. I am happy to let you guys know that I am set to graduate next Friday, April 30th!
My experience at JSU was great. They are relatively new to distance education, so some of the professors were more comfortable than others, but overall I think the experience and overall education that I received was top-notch.
I have been lurking around the board and I see a few names from a couple of years ago. I wish you all the best in your testing endeavors. I hope I can inspire some of you to push through the endless nights of study... there is a light at the end of the tunnel!

ps CONGRATS!
The program is 30 credits if you have all the pre-reqs (which you would if your undergrad was in business). I started in the Fall of '08 and I am finishing after the Spring '10 semester. So, it can be done in less than 2 years. I did take 2 courses over the summer of '09 in order to make it work. I took 2 classes every semester (6 credits).
Total cost for the entire program was less than $10,000.

Marshall,
It's good to hear from you. I'm glad you are still truckin' away. When are you going to wrap up your degree? You always wrote the most colorful posts about your testing experiences.
This board was always so much fun!
