Going to apologize if this sounds combative, not my intention, but to answer your reply I may have to sound like it.
First, the entrance exam is not a small step. I oversee physical and military training for myself and over 60 individuals. Anytime I have to dedicate to schooling I would prefer to dedicate to the actual courses.
Second, while I did not mention it completely before. As I stated before, I partly owe my success in obtaining my Bachelor's and MBA to people like Sanantone and DFRECORE. Therefore, as you might had guessed it, I tested out of my Bachelor's and used a competency program for my MBA. My academic record in some people's eyes may look good, in others it is confusing. Furthermore, I mentioned my work history to expand the recommendations that people were giving me. I can show at least three years of management experience but it is military. I have spoken with some Universities, and they are iffy about accepting it. Some will not consider it as management experience, most will not accept it as business experience. This means in the eyes of some universities I lack a good educational background and work experience. A double tap, academically speaking.
For third, please see first and second.
As for Capella and Walden, well, I did not make any actual comments about them. I genuinely tried to preserve distance. Nevertheless, I stand by my decision to omit them from my decision process. Also please see Sanantone's post.
Lastly, I appreciate this board because the people here are mostly non-combative and helpful. This board is for nontraditional schooling, and my route has been nontraditional. Because of that, I stay away from combative boards that preach traditional schooling methods. As mentioned before, I am a long time lurker and first time poster.
Thank you.

I have been speaking with one of the universities mentioned here, Cumberlands. I admit that I do not understand how accreditation works. The university in question lacks programmatic accreditation for the program but it is regionally accredited. Is it possible for a program to not fall under the university's regional accreditation?
An updated list, please critique:
Argosy University
Baker College
Franklin University
Liberty University
University of the Cumberlands
University of South Alabama
South Alabama is probably the most prestigious. However, I may not be able to fulfill their 5 year business experience requirement. I plan to contact them and see what they say.
For my second choice, it remains a draw between Argosy, Liberty and Cumberlands. Please critique them, if you have any experience with them.
Kennesaw looked promising but I am guessing their program changed. As I was told it is no longer an online program but a full residency program.
