University of the People MBA 2018 updated thread
#1
Okay, I'm thinking about doing their MBA.  Then I can do a Masters in something that I really want to do. 

I know it sounds weird, but it fits my situation.  I've been in Health Care Admin at a director level or above for 30 years, just need the paper.  I would rather do the WGU MBA in a term, but can't come up with the upfront money due to some extended-family obligations that I have taken on.   The U of the P $200 a course works for my cashflow/budget.

It looks like they have five 8-week terms in each year.   I'm not into defined terms, as they make me crazy, but 8-week terms I think I can do.  The MBA is cheap, but not really that fast unless you really do 2-3 courses per term.   


So, I'm looking for a couple of pieces of info:
  • Has anyone actually taken the MBA courses?
  • If so, how rigorous are they?  Can I take 2 courses per term?   3 courses per term?   I'm not looking for easy learning, I just don't want to have to do heavy loads of busy work.
  • What are the end of course exams like?
  • Has anyone actually finished the MBA program and can comment on the experience?
  • Has anyone actually finished any degree there and can comment on the experience?
Thanks everyone!   Big Grin

Also, someday maybe a MS in Forensic Psychology, just for fun.   Oh, and a BS in Animal Behavior.  And, maybe when I'm 85 a PhD in something fun.
