Need Help Finding MBA in Healthcare Admin/Management

[reeko0830]

I was just on the phone with them.  The way to beat them is to offer this program in 30 hours vs 42.  With 42 credit hours, it is 15,500 per the academic advisor I just spoke with.  The fastest track for this program would be around 14-16 months.  He also said that the program underwent some changes and now it is about 15 hours of studying per week per class.

This is why U of I springfield is interesting but they stated they proctor.  I just found Youngstown State, I have reached out awaiting a call.

Something to keep in mind....the folks on the phone typically haven't been in the program. 

Define 15 hours of studying. 
15 hours of reading?
15 hours of researching?
15 hours of writing?

Everyone works at a different speed so 15 hours according to whose abilities? 

I'd be more focused on exams - are there any? Proctoring? 

Textbooks included? If not, can I rent digital books from Amazon? I don't buy physical textbooks because they're far too expensive. I prefer digital books so I can read wherever I go and I can use search functions.

How often are the required courses offered?

What courses have prerequisites? How often are they offered? 

How long is a term? 

How are holidays treated? This is important because some programs ignore holidays and have due dates on holidays. This happened at CSU Global to me. We had a discussion due on Thanksgiving and a paper and discussion responses due that Sunday. It was a ROUGH week.

Are faculty adjuncts? How long have they been with the college? I'm seeing 1 college in particular rotate through professors faster than one can change their socks. Its' creating a lot of problems for students.

Can I see the syllabus before I register for classes? Amberton does this and it's had a HUGE impact on the courses I take. I don't do group projects anymore after a bad experience so I avoid all classes with a group project. I also avoid certain professors because of their workload and ridiculous expectations.

Are discussions a common occurrence? At some schools, every classes has these and many students do not enjoy them. 

What is the college's stance on AI usage? This has been interesting to watch unfold! 

Does the college have a digital library for students to use?

What platform are classes taught on? They're not all the same. Some are definitely better than others. 

How many times a year does graduation take place? Some colleges only confer degrees once a year. Others after every term or semester. Definitely something to find out. 

What services does the school offer? Tutoring? Writing lab? Resume help? Job services?

Could you answer any of these questions. I would prefer no group work, I literally just told Youngstown that I would prefer zero networking and to never have to speak to another person during the entire duration.  I just want to get the work done and get the diploma.  They use ProctorU so they are off the list.  Open for suggestions for schools.  Right now I am between University of Illinois Springfield which is 36 hours, uses canvas, and has respondus through canvas or eastern which is 42 hours and does not have any proctoring.
