re: LSUS Online MBA Reviews

Geaux and Get, thanks for the feedback. Sometimes I like to get a sanity check or maybe walked off a ledge.

Most of the downsides Geaux mentioned played into my decision to not attend locally in the long run, but are very manageable in the short run. Getting admitted as a "visiting student" is much easier, so still don't have to mess with GRE et al. (Geaux - would be going to Augusta State U)

FIN 701 is solidly on my LSUS list that I'm excited about taking.

ISDS 710 is part of my concentration, and yes... have already completed HCAD so I'm pretty locked in since that class won't even count as an elective in the general MBA. I'm likely get it replaced with FIN 740. Even if I can get an equivalency class locally to replace 710 (which does not appear to be the case) FIN740 looks like it would be extremely educational.

That really just left the MKT and MADM -- and mostly I was hesitant about MKT. If the class includes strong content, I'll probably feel okay about investing the time.

I don't think I'll do Meeks because of the unpredictable nature of my work hours, often times putting in 60hrs Mon-Thur. Would not be fair to team members on a class project to not be available until Friday at the earliest for any kind of meaningful coordination... and not able to submit anything to them until Saturday.

So thanks to your thoughts, I at least feel better about the MKT/MADM760. Still undecided about course of action, but I have time to knock it around a bit.
