RA MBA for $3000? Hellenic American University

That's cool - I wish I had the time and energy to take advantage of this - it is seriously the cheapest MBA I think I have ever come across - and the fact that is from a regionally accredited school makes it just about an unbeatable opportunity.

 

Totally agree with you. It was on my bucket list, I am going to see if they will accept some transfer credits as well. I saw they accept up to 9 transfer credits for the MBA program. This is a steal either way as it is hard to come across a regionally accredited MBA for this price. Only problem I see is the lack of AACSB accreditation but it is still a steal in my eyes. Better then getting a nationally accredited or non accredited school's MBA.
Appreciate you sharing the find and hopefully I can get admitted into the program.

 

AACSB is really only beneficial for a small set or large employers and then a large portion of colleges/universities. If you have no desire to teach business courses in an AACSB Accredited business school, then you are fine.

 

LookS like you just have to get the application in and they will honor the deadline, you can submit official paperwork later.

 

You can still apply if you email the dean to start the process by February 1, 2021 and provide unofficial transcripts, resume, cover letter, a picture (headshot) and your ID. You can start classes by taking one class on March 29th

 

NO! NO! You can't change your mind at this juncture. I mean you can! But you can't! Can you?!

 

Just to clarify. This MBA program is $3k per semester for 2 semesters? $6k total?

 

No its 3k for the whole program. doesn't matter how long it takes you to finish as long as you take one class a semester

 

I'm glad someone could take advantage of this - I spent all of 2019 on my M.S. as it was an accelerated program, it took up pretty much all my evenings and weekends and I just don't think I could commit to a program right now. I hope they offer something like this again , or other small schools look into things like this. I hope you are successful and I hope you will share your experiences here - as I am curious as to how it all works out!

 

RA MBA with a 3K price tag can't go wrong per se

 

I've looked all over the web and I can't find anything even close to the affordability of this program. I remember when I found my M.S. program - it was also by accident - web searches are so skewed that finding out about a program at a smaller, little known school is almost impossible! Usually when you do find one, these are schools affiliated with specific religious denominations - but I think they are an overlooked resource. The closest I could find to this cost were some Nationally accredited MBAs for about $5000 or so. I wouldn't be surprised if they offer this program again in the fall, although they seem to be rather flexible right now - they just want you to sign up.

 

Amity costs about $1250 per semester so total around ~$5k. You can scroll down on this page to "Fee Structure" and change the currency to "USD":

Having said that, I suggest caution in general with the Indian universities, as they are not used to foreign students, and student service may not be comparable to US or UK schools. Also, Amity seems to follow a MOOC-based approach just like the upgrad/LJMU.

 

Just a quick update, I was able to have my transcripts reviewed and got them to accept 9 transfer credits which is the max. If you have graduate credits have them review your transcript could save you some time and less classes.

 

That's great! Will it reduce the cost of the program at all, or is the cost still fixed because of the huge discount (which they are calling a "scholarship rate")?

 

It would not reduce the cost because its a flat $3,000 for the program but it does save you time and less classes to take as each class is 7 weeks long.
