    I am done with all of my requirements for my BSBA through CCU. Thanks to this board I have achieved part of my goal.

    Now I will be starting MBA soon and feel that I could use some help to take me writing to another level.

    I definitely need to learn proper citation and maybe a few other things.

    Can anyone suggest a short course that could help me get ready for writing on the graduate level?

    First an answer, and then a question. There are some free online resources which might help you with writing graduate level term papers.

    University of Nevada, Reno

    How to Write a Research Paper

    The Purdue Online Writing Lab


    Now, the question: What can you tell me about CCU's BSBA program? Likes, dislikes, impressions? Do they use proctored exams, online? How quickly did you get through the program? I ask because I'm considering enrolling in the same program.

    Thanks!

    I thought that the program was really good. If you like a true independent study, this program is for you.

    You always know what to expect in every single course, cause they all follow the same format.

    I have taken courses from a wide variety of places and this one had to be my favorite.

    You can submit your exams online, but they are administered online. They are paper based (or PDF), yet you can go online to fill in the multiple choice part. For the finals you can expect proctored exams.

    Honestly, I do not have any complaints. They are extremely friendly and helpful. Customer service is truly top notch. The employee retention seems to be good.

    If you plan to transfer credits be sure to fight for all of the transfer and credit by exam options that you can get. I went back to them after their initial evaluation and fought for some more credit by exams courses and an increase in transfer credit.
