I graduated from the UOP on-line program for Business Management in August.  For me the program was great since it finally got me to finish my degree. However, it was not without its frustrations. If you write well and can handle covering team projects for others in your class who fail to do their part of an assignment - then I would recommend the program.  If however, you do not write well (multiple papers due each week, plus on-line questions and participation) and do not deal well with frustrating people (class mates who try to sail through on others effort) then I would not recommend the UOP on-line program.

I know lots of people who attended there, and i almost did myself. Not sure how reliable this info is, but I had a friend who said he got his degree from there but it turns out on of his instructor's credientals were doctored and therefore any student who had credits from this instructor had invalid degrees. I have no idea exactly how true that is.\n\nAs far as the financial situation, I think they have it all cleared up. I can't remember exactly what the problem was, but they got rid of everyone who used to work at ABS (knew someone who worked there & he got laid off) and hired an all new staff for LVC. I don't know why the two are still affiliated. Anyway, I don't think you have much to worry about. Just check it out good and read EVERYTHING before you sign. Good luck!

I went to ITT, and for me it was great, if you want to skip all the B.S courses and just learn about what you are going to do I say its better. After I finished school I meant a lot of people that had collage degree’s and they may have known more of the theory then I did, but I could trouble shoot & fix the problem allot quicker and easier then they could.

They are a proprietary school, which means they are for profit.  They don't have a very good reputation with employers to be honest, so please investigate thoroughly before enrolling and getting a degree that will be worthless to you in the work world.

Post an ad on http://www.monstertrak.com\nI'm a college student and that is where my school (and most schools I think) tells students to go to find internships. \n\nOr you could contact local schools directly to have them pass the word on to students looking for internships.

I found it the most exciting, eye-opening, mind blowing experience of my life.  Everything you think you know will be challenged, what you don't know anything about you will discover, and what you have a passion for will be revealed. It will set you on the course of who you will become, the kind of person you want to be and give you the tools you will need to accomplish that.\n\nOf course, you can also party through school, squander the opportunity and turn a blind eye to everything you learn that challenges you to think. I know many people who did just that and regret it today.\n\nI learned so much as an undergrad that I continued educating my self through a post graduate degree.  I don't believe I would have been so successful in my businesses if my experiences at the universities would not have taught me so much about the world and myself.\n\nGood luck, remember to have some fun and enjoy the challenge.

Wow.  There are some pretty negative answers in this thread.\n\nPick a good program.  Pick a highly rated program.  The brand *is* part of the value of an MBA, and frankly, the lower rated programs aren't that much cheaper.  Here in the Bay Area, Haas (Berkeley) has a great ranking (top 5 in part time rankings, recently been in the top 10 for full time).  I am currently a student at Haas (in the PT program), and I can't understand why people would pick a different program in this region.  Stanford, unfortunately, doesn't have a part time program.\n\nI agree with the previous poster who said you need to have an idea what you want out of it.  Go in with a plan on how you're going to get value from the MBA, and just from being a student.  I'm amazed at the access I get just by being an MBA student.  It opens a lot of doors.  But you need to be very goal directed to get this value.\n\nI can't agree with the person who said networking in a PT program isn't good.  As a current PT student, I have an *amazing* network of rising stars at a number of bay area companies, right now.  Comparing notes with some co-workers who are recent graduates from the FT programs at Wharton, Stanford, Columbia, it's clear that my network is broader, more active, and more useful right now than their networks.\n\nSo - to your actual question.  If you are in the Bay Area, pick Berkeley (I'm biased, obviously).  Really, you can gain a lot of value from any part time MBA program.  But talk to people, figure out how *you* can gain value from an MBA, and then go from there.

Learn the computer.  As a System and Network admin for my company there is only one way to get in with me.  Have a brain cell working and be confident.  Work as an intern and work for free.  Soak in all the knowledge you can.  Get 2 or 3 computers even if they are crap and network them so you can say you did it at home.  Play around with them learn and more than what the teachers are giving you.  You’re in school for computer that means you have access to pirated material learn the OS and the Server OS.  I just terminated a person who had a degree but I don't know how she got it because she did not know a thing.  I want someone is not afraid to mess up its part of the game.  Get in with help desk and work your way up the latter take chances and get with your school and see if they can help you out.  Feel free to contact me if you like. If your going to a technical school such as DeVry then they should have something for you.  If your going to a real Universaty then make sure you get your BS in computers.

The folks at Georgia Tech should have all that info. Your recruiter/counselor should have told you all of that up front as well.

I had a Friend that worked in marketing there. He absolutely loved it. He said the benefits were great and that his co-workers were a joy to work with.  He worked there for 7 years.

I am in the process of taking the course.  I'm about 80% complete.  I am taking significantly better photographs now than when I first started the course.  I personally feel that the course is much better for photo technique than it is for photo business purposes.  The best teacher for the photo business is for you to either go somewhere like RIT for photography or get a low paying 'gaffer' job with a photo studio in a major city.  This will do more teaching you the business end of things.\n\nI do however highly recommend the course for photo technique.  My suggestion to minimize the cost is to do the 1-time payment, but wait until they're running a special, you can save as much as 40% off the total cost of the program (that's what I did).\n\nIf you want to see some things that I've done http://www.pbase.com/kurtteej  [I focus mostly on outdoor stuff, not stuff that would pay me].

While I do not have experience with the masters programs, I have spent a significant amount of time as a student at the Devry in Fremont, CA.  I would have to say that as a school, they are sub-par at best.  It is absolutely NOT worth the money.  Most of my teachers barely spoke English, they let in just about anybody who has the money (or meets meager finance requirements) which creates an extremely undesirable environment in terms of fellow students.  The enrollment officers fed me a pack of lies about every aspect of the school, in particular the transfer of my credits.  If you are expecting any kind of respectable, scholarly institution, you are barking up the wrong tree, believe me.
