JD without passing the bar exam likely does not have much "value". Legal knowledge from JD is not as widely applicable as business knowledge gained from an MBA program. Besides, the presumption for someone with JD but no bar license is that he/she could not pass the bar exam.
NWCU's part time program is intense as you need to spend about 20 hours a week. While class attendance is not required, the exam is timed and proctored. Many students fail to maintain the required GPA. Cost wise, it's probably the most affordable option.
BTW, I did attend the NWCU program and passed the CA bar on first try. ROI is pretty good for me.
