Question: NCU MBA or CAGS?

Now that's a good deal! Those who have undergraduate degrees in business might meet this requirement.

 

Thanks for all of the input on the decision between a CAGS and MBA in HS from NCU. I was awarded the MBA-HS today without any additional coursework.

 

Congratulations! It feels pretty good, doesn't it? What degree will you pursue next? LOL

 

I am about two-thirds the way through my Doctorate in Public Administration (DPA) at Valdosta State.

 

Congratulations! What a great feeling it must be!!

 

Congrats, and now that is out of the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Definitely - it was a nice pick up while in the middle of my DPA.

 

That is awesome! Congratulations.

I'm doing something similar with Dakota State. I was recently admitted to a PhD program at GW and I decided to go for it. I am currently one course away from a MSIS. I will take my last course for the MSIS this spring.

 

Wow! This must be the year of changes from one place to the other.
Congrats in getting accepted GW and with MSIS, I guess now your user name will hold grown for now(PhD2B), but when you are finish will be another story .
Best of luck!

 

Thanks. I applied to the GW program because it didn't cost me anything. They waived the application fee and were willing to admit based on unofficial transcripts. I was going to turn it down based on the cost of the program, but my wife kept telling me, "Why not? We have the money." Now I am in the process of relearning some calculus so I will be ready for January.

 

I definitely would go for it, this is an investment, despite how much you pay.

 

Hello PhD2B,

I was wondering how are you doing with your studies?

You have been quiet lately.

Regards.

 

I finished my first semester with GW and decided to call it quits. I got an A- in both courses, but taking two courses in nine weeks, starting a new job, teaching online, and spending time with the family all proved to be too much. I found myself ignoring the family in order to get everything else done. I was disappointed to leave the program, but felt it was the best decision for me.

Now I am looking at a couple other options. The DSc program at DSU is still on the plate, the University of Maryland, College Park, now offers a PhD in Project Management in my area, and of course I could always return to NCU. I'm not sure which route to take right now. I am one course away from a second master's degree (MSIS at DSU) and I applied to UMD's PhD program. I start my last course for the MSIS on 18 May (a 5-week course).
