Aston University: Triple Accreditation MBA & More!
#1
Aston University in the UK has four (4) fully online graduate programs available for a pretty affordable price point;  It's interesting that they created sites for Canada, Germany, Middle East, US, and the UK of course.  I guess that these are countries with the most international students studying there... or that's the target markets for the institution.
Link: https://studyonline.aston.ac.uk/programmes and  Fees: https://studyonline.aston.ac.uk/fees-funding

1) MBA - Triple Accredited - 18,700 GBP
2) MS - Business Analytics - 11,050 GBP
3) MS - Business & Management - 9,500 GBP
4) Executive Doctor of Business Administration - 39,000 GBP

For a top 1% business program, it might be worth it if your company is paying partial tuition, for me, it's slightly out of my price range.

Aston isn't really "famous" or "fancy", it's just that their business school is one of a select few that holds Triple Accreditation. Most of the "Triple Accredited" MBA programs aren't really from the "famous" or "fancy/really expensive" schools. An example or two from Canada - HEC Montreal, Univ of Ottawa, I rarely hear anything about these and in the US: Hult International Business School.

More over Aston from the UK reminds me of Deakin, except Deakin is in Australia and only has AACSB and EQUIS, they are similarly ranked globally - with Aston ranking slightly higher than Deakin. Their partnership programs with MOOCs and other degree offerings are inexpensive, compared to several similar programs from other universities. See links below for details...

It's weird how Wiki ranking and the official rankings are different, change the year around.

U2B Triple A: https://u2b.com/2020/05/19/mba-accredita...s-schools/

I wonder who would want a Top 1% MBA and who would settle for a similarly priced or cheaper AACSB/EQUIS MBA program.

The ranking of Aston is pretty good.
22nd in UK by the Guardian University Ranking 2023.
Link here: https://www.theguardian.com/education/ng...e-rankings.

Meanwhile, York University is 21st on the list. They also provide 100% online Postgraduate degree.
1. Master of Science in Computer Science with Data Analytics
https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid368494
Cost/Price = £8,640 ($10600 USD)
2. MBA
https://online.york.ac.uk/study-online/m...ation-mba/
Cost/Price = £12,960 ($16000 USD)

This may also be considered as MBA from York is 50% cheaper than Aston, while having similar ranking.
Finished: University of Derby Computing & IT Bsc Hons

Planning: UMPI MAOLMBA
