Will do.  I just realized one of the most attractive things about HAU is the personal attention.  Other than a 1 day delay with Greece (which is nothing), everything flowed well.  Dean Martin answered all my questions over these last few months (I'm a pain).  She's actually running the first class (Business Landscape) - there are 4 students including me.  Between our communications and completion of first class, the Dean will know me pretty well.  That's a "Relationship" - something I did not have with WGU.  Nothing against those who graduated WGU - you guys/gals are amazing!  The relationship is important for me.  I feel more accountable (and even thankful).  The HAU MBA is also a better choice for me since I've got only moderate business experience.  I'd miss something with acceleration.  Here are the remaining benefits that are important to me: Paper OR electronic materials (I read computer screens 10+ hours a day).  Most classes are 7 weeks long (though they're saying Accounting and Finance may change to 14 weeks soon and electives are 14 weeks).  You have some ability to customize your electives (request a Masters level class not listed on the HAU MBA website or approved self-directed electives).  It's 3K (this may be the last semester but it does not hurt to ask).  At first, I was excited about cramming as many WGU Masters classes into a semester.  My stress went up when I realized, oh crap this is going to take another 4K semester.  HAU is one and done (plus $ for books and possibly graduation).  Regionally Accredited.  Greece connection is cool - I'll have to, "See it for myself" : Nashua, NH is 30 mins from most of my family in Massachusetts (though I live 5 states away).  There are other benefits I'm not thinking about rn.  Certainly, I can report back to the forum as I learn more and take the classes.

I decided to pull the trigger and see if they'll honor the $3k price for me. I don't see myself getting a high-priced local MBA so this is probably the next best ROI for me.

That's great! Let us know what they say! I agree, I wouldn't pay for a high priced MBA unless work pays the entire thing, as I don't have tuition assistance, I would go for something more affordable.

Admissions: As far as the fee structure is concerned, Ms. Marieke Martin, Dean of the Campus, can confirm the fees structure to you. In the meantime, and if possible, could you please let us know on which website you saw the information about the expiration of the $3000 tuition cost?

Me: On https://mba.hauniv.edu/get-an-mba-your-way/, there is a statement: "The $3,000 tuition cost is a limited time offer for new US students enrolling through our Nashua, NH campus. To receive the $3,000 price, students must be enrolled by November 1, 2021. Limited seats are available for the term. Secure your spot now."

Dean Martin: Thank you for your questions. Yes, the $3,000.00 scholarship price is still available. The Admissions office will note your application.

So I have a choice to make. Time for a decision matrix.
