Even community colleges make you take the SAT, ACT, Accuplacer, Compass, or some other placement exam. A lot of schools don't require the GRE, GMAT, or similar exams, but all Capella requires is a bachelor's degree with a 2.3 GPA. For the MBA, there are no prerequisites, letters of recommendation, related work experience, or essay. At least WGU checks to see if you can read, write, and do basic math. WGU also requires 3 years of related experience for the MBA programs.
Edit: The Flexpath program has additional requirements over the other MBA programs. That makes me wonder....Publius2k4 since you don't have a degree in business or a similar field, did they talk to you about having 5 years of professional business experience? Or, did they find the business credits used for your individualized studies degree acceptable?
WGU made me take a readiness assessment that involved math, some reading comprehension and an essay. I also had an intake interview basically going over the program and what to expect...
