Online MBA programs have enjoyed tremendous growth and popularity. An online MBA offers some very unique benefits to students, including:
- Location Flexibility: You can live anywhere and are not restricted to the location of a school.
- Scheduling Flexibility: You can schedule your classes at your convenience.
- Lower Cost: Many online MBAs are cheaper than on-site programs.
- Shorter Completion: Online MBAs can be completed faster than part-time MBAs; in fact, many programs can be completed in two years or less.
Some schools offer 100% online MBAs, and other schools offer blended programs with some on-site classes.
Boston area colleges have fully adopted the online model, and many colleges and universities now offer the entire spectrum of MBAs, including full-time, part-time, blended, and 100% online programs.
Many Boston-area colleges offer unique approaches to online classes. For example, Bentley University uses advanced technology to allow online students to participate in the classroom remotely. This greatly enhances the communication and participation of remote students and significantly enhances the experience.
The cost of an online MBA program varies greatly. For example, the tuition for the University of Massachusetts Online MBA program is around $35,000, while the tuition at Northeastern University is over $82,000 for the two-year term.
The quality of online MBA programs generally matches the quality of schools on-site MBA programs. Equally, the value of an online MBA in the job market depends on the school’s reputation for their traditional MBA programs.
