MBA at Eastern University or Hellenic American University?

[BostonBeanMan]

I had a great conversation with the Dean yesterday. It sounds like a great program. Some updates to wavering questions (mostly from me – ha).

• Yes, mix of different assignments, papers, quizzes, tests and depends on the professor. 
  
• Online vs in-person? Everyone has opted for online so there is not really an in-person option at this time. 
  
• Regarding accreditations, they are working on a business school accreditation (likely the international one for obvious reasons). No exact timelines but if you research what it takes to get them, it is a very timely process for the evaluation. 
  
• The $3K price is indeed to be paid in cash but most importantly your commit. So, if you sign up thinking let's try this, be ready to work to finish or eat $3K. However, some single classes at some schools cost more than this. 
  
• You may be able to transfer in from other graduate classes or some amount of real-world experience. It may only be a class but still good to know.
  

Overall, some of the better elements of an MBA seem to exist with this program including research, networking /interacting with others, presenting, and some aggressive deadlines. Having been in management for a long time I can share that besides the content of the l classes (HR, accounting, leadership, etc) that these working elements of the degree program are all very important to be an effective manager in the real-world.
