I am looking for a budget online MBA program ranked among the top 50 in USA

I think it is important to factor in your goals. 50 is not old by any means but I do believe the MBA will be less helpful for you versus a 25-30 year old. At your point in your career, your achievements are far more important and therefore, I’d pay less attention to prestige and more attention to cost…this coming from a guy who graduated from Duke in May. Be smart and do not let the prestige factor get to you.

I think this is very good sound advice.
