Don't hate on us online MBAs

Krysten Crawford from Business 2.0 helps justify my existence in her entertaining piece about the value that online MBAs can still be to a company. Being one myself (University of Phoenix, Class of 2001), I get criticism from time to time about the fact that while still an accredited graduate degree, lacks the Ivy so many expect.

Good work, Krysten!

Cheers to you though for doing it and paying the fee:

"Of course, if you think an online MBA is a way to get a degree on the cheap, do some homework. Many schools charge as much for online degrees as for offline ones--or more. At Arizona State, for example, a two-year online MBA costs $38,000; a full-time campus MBA runs $30,000 for state residents and $50,000 for out-of-state students. University of Phoenix students pay up to $33,140 to get an MBA over the Internet--about $12,800 more than the average cost of a similar program offered in the school's physical classrooms. Syracuse charges the same, about $50,000, whether an MBA is earned online or off."
