I'm a student of this program and I love it. The most important aspect I would say is that I'm still able to work full time since everything is online and I can study/test around my work schedule. I'm getting my MBA in Management Information Systems (there's no direct page to it, just the general MBA page for info). Anyone with questions, feel free to fire away and I'll do my best to answer them!
I'm partial but Penn State has a great program, not cheap but if you want the name then there it is! http://www.worldcampus.psu.edu/iMBA.shtml Neil
I’m new as a poster, but have followed the forum for several years. I’m currently working on a second MBA at Tarleton State University (online). Tarleton State University offers an online MBA, MS in Management and Leadership (MSML), MS in Human Resource Management, MS in Information Systems, MS in Agriculture and Consumer Resources, Master of Criminal Justice, and a MS in Educational Psychology-Experimental. Tarleton is part of the Texas A&M University system; SACS accredited. The MBA, MSHRM and MSML degrees are also accredited by ACBSP (they're working toward AACSB). They're also pretty sensibly priced. http://www.tarleton.edu/graduate/DegreesPrograms.html Major56 ___________________________________ M.B.A. Tarleton State University (current) M.Ed.

Dear Sagar Regarding your posting on the www.degreeinfo.com site today . . . As the author of a popular book on MBA programs*, I am always interested in learning more about offerings in this field. My initial research raises these issues: UBI is not mentioned in the 2010 edition of Europa World of Learning, a 3,000-page compendium of the colleges and universities and institutes of the world, published by Routledge, which includes a 20-page section describing dozens of institutions in Belgium, but not UBI. A relationship is claimed with Clark University in the US. The administrator I have spoken to at the Clark School of Business is not familiar with UBI, and has no knowledge of a relationship. You cite a ranking showing UBI as one of the top 10 programs in Europe . . . but it is not mentioned among the 100+ European business schools described in the Financial Times business school rankings (http://rankings.ft.com/businessschoolrankings/map). Nor does it appear in the 100+ MBA programs listed in The Economist's "Which MBA" book? (http://www.economist.com/business-education/whichmba/) The #9 ranking you cite is from 2003. Has that list been updated? Thank you for clarifying these matters.

An extensive thread indeed. I hope that my experience might be useful... Even though you say that money is not a question i think the best option is a mix of respected and at the same time affordable degree. I'm an online MBA student. And to be honest, i'm totally satisfied with both price and quality.
Look through the FT rankings. I think it's the most independent source and recommendations of schools given here are subjective I think. Personally I have chosen online MBA program because it's cheaper and more flexible.
The Heriot-Watt MBA was just voted as the best onlinr MBA program by the Financial Times. Read about it. http://www.prweb.com/releases/ebs-voted-top-online-mba/by-financial-times/prweb3816744.htm
Just found an MBA at Alvernia University, also in Pennsylvania: http://www.alvernia.edu/academics/distance-education/courses%20and%20programs.html
I don't see any "vote" by the Financial Times for the "Best Online MBA". Only a LISTING by size of enrollment.

Online MBA Option Has your friend looked into American Public University? Here's a link to their MBA program page: APU Degree Program: Master of Business Administration You mentioned that your friend almost enrolled at UoP, and I saw another post about Western International University --- APU's pricing is much more affordable, at only $300/credit, for a total of $11,700. Also, it's accredited so that will make the degree worth more. I hope this helps!
