I was looking for speed of the degree but the MBA path just makes more practical sense. From everything i am reading (and also from your comments) it sounds like WGU has a nice program that would be affordable and well done. My other choice would probably be Patton but something doesnt seem right about that one...I have no clue why i feel that way, so I dont mean to offend anyone by that comment.
thx all
I'm currently attending Patten for another undergrad degree. I like the program, but i don't feel it is not setup to be completed as quickly as WGU. You have the option of challenging courses, but when I know a grade will be generated, I always do the extra work, so it ends up taking quite a bit longer.
I would recommend both schools for the programs I've seen, however I'd give WGU a + for speed and Patten a + for course mentor accessibility.
Good luck! It sounds like either path you take will be a good one.
