Hello all.
I'm very near finishing all coursework for my BALS @ TESU, excluding corner and capstone. However, with the additional residency waiver fee, I'm looking in the neighborhood of $6500, I believe.
I'm giving serious consideration to foregoing, just for now, my corner and capstones in lieu of an ENEB MBA.
I know, I know, ENEB. However, it would give me "street cred" with my current employer, at a substantially advantageous ROI, arguably.
I don't want to be overtly myopic in my assessment. What are the downfalls/pitfalls with going this route, other than the obvious? What is the obvious? Has anyone else done something similar? Would it be overly difficult to explain graduation date discrepancies if I complete my BALS in the same year? What If I would forego the BALS for a year or more? Is this an academic faux pas?
I would assume, albeit somewhat rare, some folks have a masters prior to, or in lieu of, a bachelors. IIRC, I believe it was forum member Michaeladsmith, that I had read at some point had a similar situation (sorry Michael, I'm not stalking mate, I swear
). I just recall reading that. I could me mistaken, of course.
In any event, I always appreciate everyone's input. Thank you kindly in advance for any and all insight.
