Do you have an outline of how long it took you for each class? I withdrew because I wasn't motivated last year. However, I really need to do it this year and would like to keep it to one term. I'm looking for motivation and an outline to try to stick to that I know is doable. Thanks in advance for any input you can give me.

Say what you will profit/non profit, all schools have expenses, so they have to make money one way or another or they couldn't exist. I really feel Patten avoids the stigma of a for-profit school by not accepting government money-i.e. GI or student loans. In real terms, this means a student loan default rate of zero and they can't be accused of using predatory lending to boost enrollment (a tactic used by many for-profit schools).
I still stand behind my decision to enroll. I paid in cash, the tuition included all my books and materials. The professors were responsive, one even called me when I was stuck because I'd failed a project. It got me where I wanted to be cheaply and quickly and without any major complaints. $2k for a regionally accredited MBA in less than four months with a 3.83 GPA. I can't really complain.
