You should not leave the University of Nebraska-Lincoln off this list. They are affordable (around $300/credit even for out of state), AACSB, completely online and a reputable university. The program is also very well administered.

 

Regarding Colorado State University...

For what it's worth, I feel Colorado State's best offering may be 'Sigdas/Coopersmiths Green Chile Beer'.

IMO, the beer far surpasses the lame lingering taste I have of CSU's MBA program (Yes, I did all but 6 credits of their MBA program).

Maybe that's why it's not on my resume. It's not that my resume is that bad - it's just that CSU is not that good (IMO-especially regarding transfer credit).

Just my 2 cents (and 12 months)...and cheers!
