Online MBA Programs

by ems215 » Wed Jul 04, 2012 6:35 pm
it is usually the assumption that online programs of any kind are useless.

The one exception might be UNC's online MBA program through Kenan Flagler. You get the same degree as those that attend the program in Chapel Hill. Also, you get a student ID card and on the list for sports tickets like UNC basketball. You are considered a full student there.

There are also immersion sessions in different countries and in Chapel Hill.

Anyone have an opinion or is anyone in the program right now? I am within the 80% range for the GMAT and I have a good GPA.

Kenan-Flagler is a great school to get a degree from. The one thing I would warn about is what your you getting your MBA for? If you are looking to change jobs or build a network, an online program may not be the best. If you are just looking to enhance your knowledge base to start a business or to advance within your company, the answer is a bit different...

i am looking to change jobs, but the difficulty is that I have had some unemployment issues in the financial industry in NYC. I cannot afford to take two years off to go back to school.
