I have received an offer from the University of Dallas Irving's new 30 credit hour MBA program. I have 7 years of work experience in software development. I am concerned about the delivery mode of this program as they run on ground/online/part/full time all at once. Not sure how the students keep pace with sessions in this self paced program. Also their cost is high - whopping $67K for a 30 credit hour plan with no specialization and expected to end in 5 terms. I am wondering if this kind of program would be any good for the professionals planning for studies on a students visa.

Wow. What a strikingly unappetizing program: http://udallas.edu/cob/programs/mba.html

hmm, I am not surprised at your response Duncan.....I have really failed to find a real excitement in this program after trying hard to find any.
The thing is I have missed some of my admission deadlines waiting for a better school and left with a few sub par options now. don't want to get back to work this year and really want to join a value adding MBA program. This sense of urgency is making me post on FindMBA forum for candid reviews on some regionally ranked B-school options.

Thanks kriordan for pointing a correction that was important.
AACSB accreditation is probably the first thing anyone would look out in an MBA program, however it is definitely not the only thing. Hence no bonus points for AACSB accreditation, its a min requirement.

I think kriordan is missing something out. The mixed modes and flexible timing of the UD degree mean that there will not be a cohort experience. Many classes will have both full and part-time students moving at different paces. That certainly makes the learning experience worse.
