    You mentioned earlier that you contacted them. What did you learn? Did you get any information about:

    Time in program? The site says that external part-time students take 6 years to do the program. Does this include the MBA? (It seems to.) Is this a minimum time? The program seems to be structured around three years once the MBA hurdle has been jumped.

    Costs? They quote A$900 per credit point for the first 5 points, then A$2,000 for the last 7. But this seems to be the charge to Aussies and Kiwis. I couldn't find the costs to international students, like those from the U.S.

    Residency? There seems to be none, except for some optional residency opportunities along the way.

    The program seems very well structured; each course is done by independent study (students purchase texts and perhaps supporting materials) with projects submitted for grading.

    I've requested information and application materials from them. Let us know what you find out, if you please. [​IMG] Thanks.

    I have talked to a couple of students who say they like the program. I have it at 3 years after the MBA (which I have). The cost is a simple equation as far as I know of converting the weak Aussie dollar to the one oif your choice. The courses are self taught and there is testing centres in NA.

    Anyone else - what about University of South Africa and Sarasota

    The DBA at USQ is at least 4 years after the MBA, but it may take longer depending on the research, it costs about 21,000 AU for international students and examination centers around the world
