MBA from Hellenic American University (HAU)

Is there anybody know that I can ask my school to issue some kind of confirmation for my degree so I can apply for this program?

This is something I suggest asking in the UMPI section. I don't think UMPI does anything like that, but it's worth checking anyway. I would also suggest emailing HAU regarding the situation and whether they might be willing to wait a couple of days for official transcripts that show graduation conferral.

They admitted me provisionally prior to graduation at TESU, once my degree was conferred, they removed the condition.

I graduated Mid March, started at HAU end March

I submitted my payment plan form today for the March 28 start. It'll probably take me 2-2.5 years to finish, so hopefully I'll be able to say in 2024 that I'm a HAU graduate.

That's great to hear! Looks like we're handing them an all star alumni network on a silver platter

If more colleges would offer steal of a deal online and alt programs this forum would sure sell it for them. Think of all the business this board has sent to tesu , cosc , hau , Georgia tech , among others.

Yup, we like sharing potential deals. Some may want to take it, some may not, it all depends on what the student is looking for and if this hits the spot. Initially, I didn't go for the deal, but have recommended it for several others... It is a very good program!

Do you guys know how long it would take until you got the acceptance letter?

[Flelm]

A few days for me.

You can't go wrong with the price. If anything it may just add to your resume or fill a check box while learning something new. I personally am doing the degree to learn a few new things. I guess I like to keep my brain busy in between degrees. At one point even considered doing the University of the People free Masters in Education Program. (not really free but super cheap). I already applied for three programs and going to see which one I get into next as I am done with HAU hopefully by June/July (three more classes left after both spring terms)

I've submitted my application to HAU and am waiting to hear back. In the meantime it was discovered that a number of their webpages are coming up as "account suspended".

Other pages seem to work just fine. Another member in a different thread guessed that it was a technical error as their webpages are routed through two different IP's and maybe they accidentally let the service lapse. I'm hoping his guess is correct.

Since my experience with this institution is very limited it left me questioning if applying with them was a wise move. I realize that is most likely just my brain over-reacting to nothing, but I want to make sure that I enroll with an institution that is not in trouble and will still be there to grant my degree in two years.  

I know a number of other members have a more extensive relationship with HAU and was wondering if any of you were aware of this glitch, and if it is a red flag that should concern me or not?

Have a great day.
