  • $$ Hey Cajun, did your MBA payoff yet? $$

    I know this is the Bellevue University blog but I welcome any and all reader questions, even personal ones having to do with my personal finances (part of the benefit of using an anonymous name).  Anyhow I received a reader question asking me if I’m making more money and summarized in how he, the reader, hopes his MBA will “pay ...

  • Fan Mail From Natalie

      Dear Scott, I am very grateful for the article you wrote about Northeastern's online MBA at: http://community.elearners.com/blogs/kaplan_management_degree/archive/2007/06/23/Northeastern-University-_2E002E002E00_-Not-For-Me.aspx As a busy working mother, I am searching for the most viable, valuable online MBA ...

  • What’s an Online MBA Worth?

    You might remember a while back when I posted a link to a poll about online MBA programs.  Well, the story that came out of that poll has arrived. “What’s an Online MBA Worth?” can be found at BNET.com The poll for the article was highly favorable to on-line MBA programs.  The story hits some important ...

  • Your Ignorance is Blinding and Embarrassing

    I almost wanted to throw up yesterday.  Yeah, it sounds like “too much information”.  But I was so angry and miffed that nausea was the default response to what happened to me.  Here is the short version of what happened. Last week, a very nice recruiter contacted me and did a 30-minute phone screen for a really good ...

  • MBA Poll at BNET

    There has been a lot of good discussion lately about online degrees.  I found one at BNET.com.  For those not familiar with the site, it is a business related site that caters to management-types like me.  The site is gearing up for a big article on on-line MBA’s and is taking a poll.  You can see it here:  ...

  • My Top Ranked Schools? A word on rankings…

    So I’ve been asked to give my top ten schools for an MBA.  Well, being as I’m an Ashford University MBA grad, I think this person was merely fishing for me to rank Ashford within my top 10 picks.  I could do that, in fact for my unique needs, circumstances and abilities Ashford was my #1 pick, Bellevue would have been my #2. ...

  • Chadron State College Online MBA

    Hi all,   Does anyone have any experience with Chadron State's Online MBA program?  I would appreciate hearing the good, the bad and the ugly.     If you had to do it again, would you do at Chadron again?  Any problems with getting the classes you needed?  Are the professors responsive?  Any ...
  • My Final Post to the Norwich Blog

    Today marks the end of my postings on the Norwich University blog at eLearners.  In the next few days, I will begin my new blog that will focus on my next “adventure in education” as I earn my Doctor of Business Administration at Walden University.  I have already enrolled and begin classes on June 29.   As I write ...

  • My Norwich GPA

    I was fortunate enough to find out what my final GPA was for the Norwich MBA program!  It was not stellar, but certainly not bad, either.  I earned a 3.36 GPA throughout the entire program.  That is a borderline B+ / A- and from what I hear, is about average for most students.  That equates to around an 84% - 85%.  I was ...

  • Back Home Safe and Sound (PHOTOS!!!)

    I am home at last.  After a very exciting week at Norwich, we received our diplomas Friday morning.  It was a defining moment for everyone I talked to and probably for everyone there.  In order to have some free time, I took an extra day and did not fly back to Texas until Saturday afternoon.  I am glad I took the extra ...

  • Norwich Residency Day 5

    It is the end of another long day.  I did not write yesterday because by the time I got back to the dorms, I had just enough energy to shower and crawl into bed.  They are indeed keeping us busy here.  We are also eating like pigs.  The cafeteria-style dining facility is great.  I need to get one of those for the ...

  • Why pick the anonymous private school?

    A University of Texas at Dallas “future grad student” asked me why I would pick an anonymous private school over a regional state school in my area that’s fairly well known, like University of Texas at Dallas.  Well, I had an issue with his question right off the bat, first Bellevue University isn’t exactly some ...

  • Norwich Residency Day 3

    Day three at Norwich was very interesting.  We started the day out with breakfast and followed that up with a whole day of debates.  The teams were mostly made up of four grads, one team pitted against the other.  Our topic was about taxation and our position was “against”.  We put up a good fight.  And we are ...

  • Norwich Residency Day 2

    It has been another busy day at Norwich University.  The started with breakfast around 6:30am.  That was followed by a presentation about how to conduct an academic debate.  The remainder of the day was spent with our debate teams devising a structure to present tomorrow.  Dinner happened at 5pm and I am down for the ...

  • Norwich Residency Day 1

    Sunday, June 7, 2009 I have arrived at Norwich University! Vermont is a very beautiful, majestic place like never I have ever seen.  I have been to a lot of places, but Vermont is very unique.  The mountains and pastoral farms have my undivided attention.  I am sure lots of photos will follow.  But not right now.  I am ...

  • On the Way to Graduation

    The first leg of my journey to graduation is over.  As I write this, I am sitting in a very nice Holiday Inn Express near the Dallas airport.  Tomorrow, I am off to Atlanta, then to Burlington, Vermont.  Saturday night will be spent in a Comfort Inn and Suites in Montpelier, Vermont.  I don’t expect to get there until ...

  • Lay off the college grads? Something every grad needs t o know and live by...

    Today on my way to work I was listening to AM talk radio, yeah I’m one of those people (sometimes).  Anyhow a less than, shall we say “enlightened” caller calls in to the talk show complaining about how every time a major business goes belly up the CEOs walk and the little guy loses his meager paycheck.  Fair enough, ...

  • Cap and Gown

    UPS delivered my cap and gown this week.  It is very cool!  When I go to Norwich next weekend for graduation, it will mark the first time I have ever worn a cap and gown.  I skipped my high school graduation because I was not into that kind of thing when I was 18 years old.  I was just happy to get out of high school. I did ...

  • Another MBA/ School choice question

    I have been lingering around the forums for a month or so and have gotten a lot of great tips and advice from various people. I have also searched and not found any specific discussions about this, so it's time to post. I am looking at online MBA programs and have narrowed the field down to just a few and was hoping for some comparisons if ...
  • Getting Bored!

    I am bored. That could be a good thing or a bad thing.  In the last week or so, I managed to complete my final assignment for my MBA program at Norwich University.  Now I am sitting here with no job to go to and no homework to do.  I do not know what to do with myself.  I am going insane! For the last assignment for the ...

  • Value Proposition

    I am still working on the final assignment for my MBA program.  This is a unique week where (1) I do not have a job to go to and (2) my family is at Disney World for the week.  So what does this mean for schoolwork?  It means that since this is a lengthy assignment, I get to do a little bit over the course of several days instead of ...

  • The Final Exam

    A tremendous milestone was accomplished this weekend.  Graduation is one step closer. In order to graduate from the Norwich MBA program, all students have to take a comprehensive exam.  It was kind of a surprise when it was announced we had to take one.  We were not sure what to study.  Since I was able to evaluate my ...

  • Re: Recommendations on MBA programs

    Would you consider abroad? A friend of mine has just done an MBA at www.gradschool.com.au - part of university of newcastle - seriously considering it myself and so far my interaction has been v. positive - they are really flexible about how much hard copy material you want sent to you vs pure online and they seem to get the online bit really well ...
  • Hey Kid, Want an MBA?

    At work today our company invited about 12 different universities and colleges to visit our offices during lunch to try and recruit or provide information to employees and contractors about their various degree offerings.  I heard two things over and over again as people walked by their tables “hey do you want to see our online degree ...

  • At a Crossroads

    Wow!  It just hit me.  Last night, my group (myself and three other students) turned in our final “group project”.  What this means is that I have one more assignment to complete for my MBA program.  The pedagogical approach that we have been exposed to now shifts from a focus on an understanding of the individual ...
