So after the initial issues with transcripts, etc. I have received my conditional admission (need official transcripts - ordered yesterday).
I've done the assessment that tells you how ready you are to do the program (technically, personally, etc.) and scored 98 to 100 out of 100 in all my areas.
I'm anxiously awaiting my email saying I have access and can start. They thought it would be late today or early tomorrow. So from hearing about it to getting admitted was all of about 48 hours including the transcript glitch issues. They have also been very responsive by phone and email.
A shout-out to Sanantone for posting the deal about the first term being free. My employer will pay most of the second term. My goal is to do it in two terms. I have about 35-40 years in healthcare, so I think I can. My choice of the MHA over the MBA is really based on already having a good understanding of the MHA course work.
I'll be interested to see how those of us in this program and the other programs feel about Walden.
Edit: Less than 2 hours later I have my email address and can get into Tempo.
Edit: I didn't have a green button I needed to select competencies for my term - emailed helpdesk and fixed within 3 minutes - wow!
Edit: 15 minutes later I was starting on my first competency.
