		Today, I found out that I got accept into Missouri State university online MBA. I am so happy, now I am worry about online classes. It will be my first time attending online courses. I never have this experience before. I feel it will be harder the online course vs face to face class. This forum helps me to move forward and I will try my best to complete it.

		Online courses take a certain amount of discipline. There's no one to remind you to do assignments, or to lay out a neat study guide for the material. You have to make sure you understand the schedule, and take charge of learning the material. Be sure to reach out for help, if needed. I would also suggest finding out if there's an online community of students in this particular program. They will be a valuable resource about professors and the curriculum.

This is an MBA program with a concentration in CyberSec? That's very interesting. How many total credits are required to complete the program and how are the courses broken down? I'm curious how rigorous the cybersecurity aspects are.

Thanks do you have some example for some online community? I know how to look at my field.

I'm curious how rigorous the cybersecurity aspects are. 5 foundation courses if you don’t have business undergraduate degree, 12 to 13 courses (core courses and cyber security courses) I don’t know how rigorous the cyber security class. I tried to ask the forum group, but no one could answer it

I would search for Missouri State MBA on places like Reddit, Facebook, or LinkedIn to see if the students have their own community. Also, once you're able to login as a student, there may be someplace linked from the school's portal or actually on the school's website.

		Congrats!  Oh, this is a nice program that is AACSB accredited and at $11 grand.  Amazingly cheap for an AACSB accredited business degree.   
Interesting find, they have a nice Masters Cyber Security at slightly over $10 grand, it'll probably rival Georgia Tech's offering, I'll look into both programs.

Link: https://cybersecurity.missouristate.edu/...-costs.htm They have a affordable program for master cyber security, but I feel Georgia tech and Missouri State University have good program in cyber security. The most important for me it will be affordable tuition, so I don’t need to get student loans.
