I had been sure I would take the WGU route and try and accelerate, which I was fairly confident I would be able to do after doing my TESU BSBA in 8 months and 3 days from next to zero (only had the 2 credit ethics from institute before started the Sophia/SDC and Corner/capstone at TESU route), but while confident, also wasn't sure I wanted to tie up another 6 months of 3-5 hrs a day and 16-24 hours every weekend on schoolwork.
Not only is this a great price and savings, the syllabus looks interesting, I am feeling like I will get some time to breath and continue to work towards the MBA with a better family/work/school balance.
While some may be put off by the lack of AACSB or ACBSP accreditation, at 53, owning my own business and no illusions nor desire to chase the fortune 500 career track, a RA accreditation alone more than works for my goals.
Once more, DegreeForum showed me a path and way forward with my education, thank you! I will post how the program is and whatever would not be a violation of the students code of conduct as I go along.
That was amazingly fast on their end, wow, a day to process your application... This program was mentioned on the sister board and I commented on the AACSB/ACBSP, you really don't need to worry about having the programmatic/secondary accreditation at all, it's a good to have option and RA is sufficient enough. For $3K, it's a steal in many ways! Sister Forum Link: https://www.degreeinfo.com/index.php?thr...ity.57785/
