    Please advise whether GWU offers Ph.D. in Business Administration (or any related business field) via DL.
    I am unable to find this school under accredited DL listings.

    Thanks,
    Eli

    I live near there and I've never heard of such a program. They advertise their master's programs in the Washington Post all the time, but I've never seen them mention a DL doctoral program.

    You could call them.

    GWU does offer an Ed.D. in leadership... at a satellite campus in Virginia somewhere... It's not really DL... but they make very good use of monthly(?) weekend meetings to achieve their residency requirements... This is yet another program where you'll need to be independently wealthy or take a "2nd" on your house...

    For the record... this program impressed me so much I almost went for it... very well thought out curriculum... appears to have a strong research foundation for an Ed.D... too bad about the industrial strength tuition though...

    Here's an excerpt from their website:

    Human Resource Development (Ed.S., Ed.D.) - The doctoral programs in human resource development are designed to provide leaders, strategists, theorists, and researchers with a foundation in human resource development. Focused learning experiences are provided in organizational learning and development, human resource (HR) strategy, adult learning, research and development in HR, and leadership skills. There are two doctoral degree formats: the Executive Leadership Weekend Program (Ashburn, VA) and the On-Campus Doctoral Program (Main campus).
