Before getting excited about UofP, read up on them on here. Many people have tried it and aren't fond of it for a variety of reasons. I've worked in HR and no way would I even interview someone who has a degree from a place called University of the People. It sounds like a fake school. It's national accredited and quite honestly, I'm not even sure how they got that far. Their professors are volunteers not on staff. Students grade each other's assignments.
If you want an MBA, then you need to put the time into a quality MBA program. Why discount WGU? Plenty of people have families, jobs, and lives and still complete their master's degree at WGU in a year which is 2 terms. It's called making the time and setting a schedule which is what you have to do for any degree at any school.
LSU Shreveport has an MBA program for under $13,000. Lots of schools have programs like this, you just have to do the research. Far more people have heard of LSU and WGU than UofP. LSA and WGU are also regionally accredited. The accreditation may be a factor depending where you live and what jobs you're looking for now and in the future. Yes, there are actually jobs out there where accreditation matters. Like it or not, disagree or not, that's how it is.
