Walden or WGU MBA in 1 term...

[Arkansas-study]

Hi all,

I completed TESU BSBA in 11 months (28 hours per week). Then I completed WGU MSML in 2 months (30 hours per week). Next I would like to do MBA.

WGU won't allow a start on MBA until the next term, so requires waiting a few months (technically would be 4 months from when I completed work, but it takes a while for degree to be issued, etc. - so mainly involves waiting 3 months). In addition, WGU's terms cost $5k for 6 months.

Since I have MSML, WGU only requires 6 courses for MBA.

Walden's Tempo program is ~$3k for 3 months. And Walden also only requires 6 courses for MBA.

I really like the competency based approach that WGU uses, and I know I can complete WGU MBA in one term because WGU terms are longer (6 months). From talking with the enrollment person at Walden, when I described the educational approach at WGU, he said that sounds like the same approach Walden uses. Yet, at the same time, he said it's rare for someone to complete a Walden MBA in 1 term --- I would imagine that most people doing Walden MBA are doing 10 full courses (vs. the 6 I would be doing) and are not able to spend 30 hours a week working on the MBA.

I know it's possible to complete WGU MBA in 1 term. I'm curious if anyone here has completed Walden MBA in 1 term? Icing on the cake is if you have any type of experience at WGU and can compare/contrast.

thanks...
