Well law and business is a lot different. Right now I have a bachelors in cardiopulmonary science, I work trauma. I plan on moving up in the hospital system or taking a completely different route and getting out of healthcare in general. That's why I'm leaning towards MBA over MHA Bc a MBA is obviously more diverse. The reason I am very interested in LSUS is Bc of the price. I believe an online program is an online program, I don't think one is that much better than another to add on tens of thousands of dollars. UF is pretty expensive, I've looked in Florida, it was my first search.

Just got off the phone with an advisor and I can say so far I've had great help the advisor really took the time to explain everything which I find very important. He explained that LSUS is a sister campus to LSU and the degree would read "Lousiana State University of Shreveport".
It's also has the dual business accreditation.

True and from what the other poster posted looks like this is a really strong online MBA.
As for my firm, frankly, the only reason they looked at me was because of my work experience which included a dozen years in the Big 4 along with several years of specialization in International Tax, some of the largest PE funds in the world as clients, and another very specific skill set. The degree always matters, but after a while, it is about your experience, who you have worked for and your career progression. My AU degree and masters got me started and its a great degree, but it took my experience and a strong interview to get my current position.
