There is a possibility to transfer into HAU MBA or something to the like and complete the degree easier, faster, the cost might not be affected as HAU MBA is already at an affordable price point with the scholarship at $3K USD. You can also take a look at other institutions such as Walden MBA in one term for a bit over $3K USD as well... Someone should create a shortlist to see what institutions would accept this cert into their MBA or other Masters options...

I decided to be the guinea pig as well. I am waiting for everything to finalize soon. It is my understanding that grades should be posted shortly. I will advise once I get an update!

So, I filled out the application to apply to Thunderbird through their Master in Leadership and Management. I hope to submit tomorrow and see next steps.
I had filled out the app and it timed out. I got a nice phone call from ASU half an hour later asking if I need help finishing. I logged back in and the system said I had to wait a day to try payment since it timed out. Great system…

Would you know the total cost of the program (if they take the cert for credit)?

I spoke with admissions today. They said for credit you MUST APPLY TO A MASTERS PROGRAM. I applied for the grad cert, and they said they wont give me credit that way. Pretty unclear.

That's confusing, so, it seems that the certificate actually isn't worth any credit unless you're going for a Masters and have it applied to a Masters degree before they'll even issue any credit.

Did you fill it out wrongly? You want a grad cert, but you tell them you want to "ladder" it up to a master's instead...
