As college tuition keeps rising, students have to get creative in being able to get the education they need in order to be competitive in the market place. For business students who are looking for a graduate degree, there is no better time than now to get a distance learning MBA.
Even though the market right now is ripe with new for-profit schools, you may still be having some trouble finding the school that is right for you. If you are not looking in the right places, it might be impossible to find one that you can actually afford. With many students leaving their graduate programs well over $50,000 in debt, it pays to really consider what job outlook you have in your chosen profession and how an MBA will really help you.
One option to consider is college with an alternative tuition program. These schools are not diploma mills. In fact many are either accredited nationally by the DETC if into regionally also. By finding a school like this, you can get your distance learning degrees for pennies when compared to what you would pay at other school. These alternative programs range from either scholarships applied to all students, or require the student to pay a certain amount and have third parties pay the rest. One school has a Sponsored Tuition Program, where students can opt-in and trade their contact information for a tuition free education. Students must still pay for their books and about $600 in fees each semester. But the additional tuition of $3600 for each semester gets picked up by your sponsor. Talk about a lesson in capitalism.
If you need a regionally accredited school, then look no further than Business Week's extensive profile listing of many top ranked graduate schools in the country that offer distance learning MBA programs. They provide all the information you will need to find that right school, including enrollment dates, admissions policies and contact information. It will save you countless hours at the computer.
So, whether you are looking for the most inexpensive program, or a more time-honored academic institution that has both brick and mortar and online classrooms, these two sources are key options to consider. With a little effort and determination, it won't be long before you have found your MBA program and you are logging in to your first class. Good luck in pursuing your dreams.
