    Both of you are right. But maybe both degrees - undergrad and MBA may be accessible to the OP at Athabasca:

    (1) 90 credits for the BGS (assuming he can make the required combo from his pool of 120)
    (2) He could possibly gain admission to the MBA program at Athabasca with/without this (or any) degree. From their site:

    ONLINE EXECUTIVE MBA

    Our flagship program, for those who have a non-business undergraduate degree or, in some cases, no undergraduate degree, but hold a management or executive position.


    Here it is: Online Executive Master of Business Administration - Canada MBA Athabasca has a proper Canadian charter and is RA - and uh - not inexpensive, at least in my book.

    PS - just looked it up. Tuition and fees for the Athabasca Executive MBA range from around $45K to around $50K - depending on the route. So - definitely not on the inexpensive list. Good school, great rep. - regardless.

    Then again, ILM is a perfectly good school - at less than one-tenth the cost of Athabasca. It HAS to be good. Look who's running it! :smile:

    Come on now, Johann. Dr.Lady might be an incredibly successful, highly knowledgeable and demonstrably competent educational innovator, but you completely ignore the only relevant fact of the matter: that he is self-employed. :angryfire: You know... there outta be an island or somethin for people like that... :AR15firing:

    There are islands for the self-employed! One self-emp. fella, Sir Richard Branson, owns TWO islands, in fact. Here's one...

    Necker Island

    Oh yeah! LOTS of islands for the self-employed! :smile: They deserve 'em. Wonder when Dr. Lady's getting his?

    There are many Executive MBA programs that will allow you to enroll with no undergrad at all, provided you have sufficient career and management experience. MIT is one that comes to mind, but again, it's not cheap.

    The CSUDH 1990-1991 catalog had this requirement for admission to a post-baccalureate degree program:

    1. Holds an acceptable bachelor's degree from an accredited institution or has equivalent preparation as determined by the campus.

    This requirement probably refers to foreign academic achievement but might also apply to someone like the OP with 120 semester units.

    I do not know if this requirement is listed in the CSUDH current catalog.

    Yes - pretty much the same now as it was then. Longer wording. This is the page:
