The school, as do many, has some excellent instructors. But it also has some really bad instructors which tend to be ego-centric, particularly if the student has more knowledge of the course material than the instructor. Further there are a couple of instructors that tend to “bully” their students. Instructors do not have much sense of how to deal with students with disabilities and would not recommend any student with disabilities going there. The schools due process policy and procedures is mostly a joke and the staff has a very limited understanding of federal laws and statutes as they relate to due process and issues concerning disabilities. In the two years I have attended only three instructors have stood-out as “outstanding." I graduate in May 2011, i.e. taking my last term currently. The other negative aspect was a promise of an academic scholarship, because of my high undergraduate GPA, if I signed on with the college, but after going there for a couple terms they finally said I was not going to receive one with any explanation. Of course I was in too far to transfer by then, i.e. over 16 credits and other schools will not transfer in that much credit. If I had the opportunity to do it over, I would go to another school, probably a public university rather than a private institution such as Baker. The only real positive aspect, other than the three instructors, is the price, it is inexpensive compared to other programs, but one has to be in a “step-program”, i.e. no flexibility they set the courses and you only have a couple of electives you can select.

We received a verified student review from "hellis," who gave this program an "A". Here are a few comments: "I just changed my major from Healthcare Administration to the Human Resources Management/5 year MBA program at Baker Online. I have been very pleased with the assistance provided by both the academic advisors and career advisors at Baker, who helped me realize that HRM is a better-suited program for me and my work experience than HCA was. I am very excited about the fact that the HRM program allows me to get a jumpstart on earning my MBA, as well." Do you agree with this review of Baker College Online's MBA program? Would you like to voice your opinion about a different online school or degree? I am completing my MBA at Baker this coming spring 2011 and I would agree entirely with this student’s evaluation of the Baker program, as to the MBA, since this has been my experience with Baker also. I have found, more than any other school I have attended – other than Clackamas Community College, it to be a student orientated college at the Masters level. Every course I have completed at Baker has been instructed by very professionally qualified personnel. There has been in each course excellent student/ teacher interaction on an individual level and as a class group. The academic structure is such that timely feedback and grades have never been an issue, and I would add for my MBA program in General Business, the most professional instructors I have experienced in my academic career. Additionally, Bakers academic and program cost structure is very appealing for me as the academic structure fits well with my learning style and the program cost is hard to compete with by other MBA programs I researched prior to choosing Baker. The only negative element is; I was lead to believe I would get financial assistance, due to my high GPA standing, in the form of academic scholarships and this never occurred, nor did anyone do anything to remedy this oversight when questioned about it. Otherwise, it is a great program and I have recommended Baker College to others seeking a good MBA program at a very reasonable cost. Respectfully, J. Berdeaux
