a little WGU MBA review....

[billydoc]

I started this thread because when I was considering WGU I couldn't find much information. I was really on the fence but finally took the plunge without really knowing what to expect. I hope this thread helps lead other to WGU or away from it. I just want people to be able to make a good informed decisions. I'm really happy with the program overall, it was right for me.

Thank You rebel for starting and keeping this thread alive! This is a very big deal for folks like me. After being in the field health care for over 20 years I'm going for my MBA. now accepted at WGU. Dang, I wish that I've bumped into his thread a bit earlier for the great info, and possibly $65 waiver. But...it's done now. I was really debating myself (LOL) over WGU vs Amberton or A&M Texas, or UT program or something that basically has more name recognition, and is not completely cost-prohibitive. Now that you've almost done w/ WGU MBA what kind of feed back do you get from folks (who matter) at your work, or may be outside of you work field? I've heard nothing but great things about WGU, provided students really follow through on what they've signed up for. But doe WGU give you any connections, which all of these expensive programs are known for. Not that it will matter to me much, as long as I remain employed God willing. In retrospect, given the choice, time it takes to colmplete MBA and the cost factor....would you do this program at WGU or you woul have gone w/ some other place?

Thank You very much.
