Boston University - Masters of Science in Banking and Financial Services Management

Anyone have experience with this? I know that BU is a decent school and this program can be completed 100% online. I haven't been able to find any reviews via Google...

 

I don't have any personal experience with the degree but you might try to contact these folks and see if you can get some first hand information. Looks like one of the professors is a grad.

"Mr. Hartzell holds a BA in economics and business administration from Mount Union College and a master of science in banking and financial services management from Boston University."

 

It seems that it's a very good program if you are working in the banking sector.

Here is a breakeven of the program's cost:

You will have to complete a total of 12 courses. Each course is 4 credit hours X $680/hr = total cost of $32,640. Which is not bad for a BU Masters degree.

Isn't the program from Metropolitan College? I would go there if that name appears on the degree certificate.

 

Sorry to bring up a semi old thread but Tekman do you mean

Do you mean you wouldn't? Or would....
