Well...believe it or not it looks like you talked me into JSU. The plus is that the General MBA program is only 30 credits, not 36 like Chadron State. The AACSB accreditation is awesome and because of how the program will be spaced out, all tuition will be covered by my company. Plus, they are going to let me begin the program in the fall even though I will not graduate from EC until November. At $300/credit hour the entire program comes out to $9000 plus books of course. It looks like I am going to have to make the drive down to Alabama for the oral final interview given by the faculty, but the head of the program said that they are looking into an option to do the final interview through a teleconference.

As long as you have the business prerequisites, JSU is a great option. The prerequisites are the core business stuff that you have to take to get a BS-Business at Excelsior and I'm sure TESC like Marketing, Economics, Finance, Accounting...etc.

Thanks for the info Michael - you da man
