How To Choose an Online MBA

MBA Degree Online Articles : How To Choose an Online MBA

Distance education is growing in recognition and esteem. Students in an online MBA benefit from a highly interactive setting that promotes leadership, teaming, and communication skills. Finding the right online MBA, however, is sometimes difficult. What should you look for in an online MBA?
  • Is the school accredited professionally? Many online MBAs are accredited, but only top business schools meet the rigorous requirements of The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business for strategic management of resources, faculty-student interaction, and achievement of learning goals.
  • Can the school provide me with any pre-requisite courses I need? Our program offers self-paced modules to meet program requirements for business foundation courses.
  • Can I complete the degree quickly? Our program takes about one and a half years to complete.
  • Will a professor answer my specific questions about online material? Faculty will guide you through assigned readings, discussion posts, and responses to questions. Course-ware also allows conferencing and document sharing.
  • Is there an academic support network? Students working full-time find team-based and cohort-based courses help them learn from each other while providing a support network. All services, including an online library, are available to our students.
  • What are my financial aid options? MBA directors will help you on financial aid options. Many students receive corporate tuition reimbursement or use GI support.
  • What is the best school for me? The Program Director will work closely with you to match your goals and credentials to the right school. Each WebMBA school admits its own students based on its individual admissions requirements. Applicants can use the convenient online admissions sites for our universities.
  • Does the program focus on practical application? Courses emphasize real-world application, including how concepts and skills can benefit your company or be applied to the business community. Faculty rely on case studies and other hands-on approaches, such as computer simulations.
  • Is travel required for courses or exams? Our exclusive online courses require no residencies or travel for exams. All course-work is online.
