Edgewood College/UpGrad DBA; potentially $11,250

[lidel]

After a great deal of due diligence on my part, I decided to be the forum test subject for this program and enrolled for a start date of December 31st. I won't likely do a course-by-course critique of the program, but I will try to pop in occasionally and give general updates on how it's going. I have talked to a few folks from UpGrad during this process and the Associate Dean of Business for Edgewood College, and they all went above and beyond to answer questions and field concerns. Fingers crossed!

Just curious. Have you compared this USD12k DBA program with the following? If yes, what are the deciding factors for choosing EdgeWood?

- PhD in Business Management from Spain's Inter-University for Euro9k (link : https://www.uoc.edu/en/studies/doctorate...management )
- Prague University of Economics and Business DBA for Euro15k (link : https://fba.vse.cz/students/doctoral-stu...ration-dba )

Hi. 

I did not specifically compare with either of these programs, though I did investigate over a dozen different institutions to some extent or another. I had no interest in a 3-5 year Ph.D. I felt more comfortable with the American schools as their systems and operations seemed more familiar.  Big factors for Edgewood were that it felt like an excellent fit based on my needs, and while it is still under accreditation approval, it seems pretty sure that it will come through, and once it does, it will be regional. The people I talked with were always very good about answering questions, and trust me I threw scads of them their way.
