Great if i were to close in on Bellevue University what are your thoughts?

How does this university stand interms of public reputation and also perception in corporate world

My view is that Corporates dont mention they want Only MBA's from AACSB ..
So justs by having MBA(SCM) from Regionally Accrediated Univ added with experience will still give me an edge ?

Thanks

Hi Sushnath401,

Well, we don't have much feedback or online student reviews yet for the Bellevue Online MBA www.geteducated.com/profiles/show/online-degrees/bellevue-university/graduate-college-of-business/23/554/master-of-business-administration-supply-chain-management so it is hard to gauge how well that program is doing.

I can tell you that it is a private, non-profit residential college first regionally accredited in Nebraska in 1977.

So, it has been around for quite some time and I do not know of any scandals that this school has been involved in related to marketing or financial aid. These are all good things. It seems solid to me, BUT the real people who could tell you are the current students and the faculty.

Let me know if you hear of anything negative on this school.

It does meet all your criteria also:

100% online
affordable
no entrance exams
regionally accredited

The last question would be if their courses match your career needs.
Do you like their curriculum?

Whatever opinion you form please go to the degree profiles and post your final online MBA reviews and grades. This will help others know what your opinion was ultimately of all these online degrees and which ones you kept on your list or marked off your list and why.

The more feedback get in terms of comments and reviews the easier it will be for them to decide and your reviews will leave valuable clues for them to consider as they compare online mba degree programs

Hey Sushnath401,

This reply is a bit late, but after reading your post, I contacted a co-worker who's currently going through the Bellevue MBA program right now. 3 classes to go, and he's done. He has enjoyed it, but didn't find it quite as challenging as he'd thought. His 2 cents: It's a good program for giving you a broad understanding of business administration, but doesn't always go too in-depth.

I'll try to convince him to add a review.

My 2 cents...I've taken some classes at Bellevue University. It was for the MSMIS program, not the MBA, but I was pretty impressed with the coursework overall. The teachers were easy to reach via email, and they presented the material in a pretty concise manner.

Bellevue University was build primarily to educate adult learners, and they seem to excel at it. They've received accolades for distance learning/teaching, including the Corporate University Best in Class (CUBIC) award (www.bellevue.edu/about/awards.aspx).

The only negative point I could say right now about Bellevue, is that since it's focus has been on adult learners, sometimes the success of the "traditional" students hasn't had the attention it should. As of last year, the graduation rate for full-time freshmen was stated to be 20 percent. This lags behind other local universities like Creighton (approx. 75%) or University of Nebraska-Omaha (50%). Full article here: www.omaha.com/article/20100920/NEWS01/709209927

For distance/adult learners though, Bellevue University was literally made for them, and if you want an MBA program that covers the broad strokes of business administration, they'll probably deliver that for you.

Hello Sushanth,

Sorry this answer is so late, but I just saw your question. Hope you haven't made a decision yet. Let me tell you about the University of Wisconsin-Platteville Distance Learning Center new online degree program in Integrated Supply Chain Management.

The Online Masters in Integrated Supply Chain Management is a unique, cross-functional study of all facets of the integrated supply chain. The online degree examines in detail the interplay and coordination of business, industrial studies, engineering, and information technology with the ultimate goal of producing graduates with supply chain leadership capabilities beyond those fashioned by a typical MBA program. In addition to the broad scope of ISCM, graduates will also explore one or more focus areas in greater detail to develop specialized expertise (i.e. Analytics, Purchasing, Manufacturing, Logistics, or Customer Relations).

The program does not require a GRE or GMAT. It is 100% online you never have to come to the campus. The tuition is very affordable at only $610 per credit making the total cost around $18,300.

For more information on this degree visit the University of Wisconsin Platteville Distance Learning
