Considering the price, I believe it's a worthwhile investment. Achieving results in just 10 months is impressively quick. I initially considered enrolling at WGU, but after encountering considerable criticism regarding how their programs are perceived in the job market, I decided against it. While it's an excellent institution, completing an MBA in merely 12 days seems unreasonable. That said, I suggest giving Eastern a try. You're unlikely to regret it!

Congratulations on your MBA. Sounds great and very flexible to schedule. 
Do they require a special webcam for Eastern University? 
Do you use your own webcam and some kind of lockdown browser to record yourself for all of the exams? 
Just want to know what to prepare for.
Thanks

Earlier in the thread, I mentioned Eastern University has other programs and have a link to those... One of our members on the sister thread completed the MS Data Science at Eastern for roughly $10K. He even has a review thread and a personal website with the review, Eastern did use Respondus for virtual proctoring, but now just use that browser for locking down exams, I'm not sure if they will continue doing this lock down, or will re-add the virtual monitoring/recording this year or later.

No, there is no webcam, proctoring, or lockdown browsers. Test are timed though.

Ah, so there have been minor changes to their lockdown of browsers option... Tests normally should be timed, I wonder if they allow re-tests if you get a certain score and want to 'upgrade' the score on it without re-taking the class.

Thanks very much for sharing your experiences. 
Hope you might consider doing an update or recap of what you saw as you get to August etc. 
Best of luck to you with your future courses. Seems like a great program.

I don't recall there was any when I reviewed their web page, might need to revisit that just in case...

Dustin, while partway through the MS in Data Science at Eastern, wrote on the sister board that there was "no religious content in the program at all." Students were invited to a completely optional daily prayer videochat. "The President occasionally sends out requests for reflection or prayer in campus-wide emails."
