I registered so that I could 'bump' this thread to see if anyone has applied to, or started, this program? I am in the application process now and should know if I've been accepted in early January. I've done a good amount of research and Walsh seems to have everything in order, it is just not a very well known school outside of the Michigan area.
With that being said, I don't believe that the program is ACBSP accredited currently - the program adviser from Great Learning attributed this to it not being a business-focused degree, but I think it is too new to have received that accreditation (just a guess). While the program on Great Learning's website is only visible to users outside of the United States, candidates in the US are able to apply and start this program at the ~$12,500 price point.
One hope that I have in this program is that the school may, at some point, become AACSB accredited, which will make this degree extremely competitive. I will be reaching out separately to the school to better understand what their goals are in that sense.
