Well that would be a fantasy! LOL I was going to say there sort of is an option that's kind of sort of but not really close now. LOL It's Virginia University of Lynchburg. But it's a Christian university. It is non-profit. It's NA accredited. It has a 1 year doctoral degree. It costs $15,000. I think that is as close as we'll get. That's s great fantasy though! I'd love a 1 year DBA without a dissertation and your price tag would be AMAZING.
There's another option that meets some of the criteria. It's Breyer State Theology University. It's a Florida state approved university, due to a religious exemption. However, that religious exemption limits the university to only award degrees with a religious modifier name (example: Ethereal Accelerated Doctorate in Business Administration). (In this case, they're using the word "ethereal" as the modifier).
They have three 1 year doctorate degree programs with each costing a grand total of $3,500.
They had some problems that caused Oregon and Texas to discourage people from enrolling there. In addition, they don't have a large social media following on LinkedIn or Facebook. If they can redeem themselves by building a good online reputation, I'll reconsider it in the future.
I think it's important to point out that Breyer State (Theology) University has been reported as being a degree mill.
