Sponsored Description: Ranked by U.S. News & World Report as a Best Online Business Program (#38) the Mississippi State University Distance MBA offers students an accredited, affordable, and flexible master’s degree opportunity. This quality, fully online degree offers a general MBA within a flexible 30-credit hour program format and allows for admission during fall, spring or summer. Courses are streamlined, and many are taught in fast-paced, intensive, eight-week modules. The potential to complete an MBA in a two-year period makes the program very attractive to an already busy professional. Students choose a course load each semester that suits their own personal work schedule and lifestyle. The MBA in Project Management includes nine hours of project management coursework, for a total of 33 hours, along with a core of general business courses. Both the MBA and MBA-PM program is portable and military-friendly. Information about specific admissions requirements and fees, as well as a complete program of study, is available on the program website. Admission to the program is based on your admission application, which includes your undergraduate transcripts and a record of your GMAT score. Pre-evaluations of transcripts are available upon request. All prerequisites are also available online through MSU.

I did extensive research but even though I wanted to get my masters from a different university I finally settled on State because of:
1.High-End Accreditation;
2.Value (cost (as in significantly lower cost) and prestige considerations);
3.Exact same assignments and coursework (and syllabus) and Profs as the ‘on-campus’ classes. Diploma looks the same – essentially everything;
4.Length of MBA program i.e. how many classes/credit hours would I have to take – answer: 13 classes totaling 30 credit hours when I went through. Many programs that were in my top 5, like Auburn and FSU, had much longer programs than MSU; 5.Familiarity with some of the Profs – I had two previous Profs give me letters of recommendation to get accepted to grad school and the MBA program. To be completely fair the only thing keeping me from rating my experience an "A" was one bad Professor and a class that was not as challenging as it should have been.
Mississippi State University's Online MBA program seems like a great option! This school is affordable, nationally recognized, and has a good football team. Also, MSU is AACSB-accredited and offers students the ability to choose coursework concentrations.
This program allows students to enter any semester - spring, summer, or fall. Students may sit out a semester if something comes up in their personal lives. Classes are offered multiple times each year. The MSU Distance MBA offers students a flexible and accredited distance MBA program at a very affordable cost.
Everyone at MSU has been very friendly and the education seems top notch. Courses are laid out well and are tailored to the online format. Professors are engaging and content is rich and meaningful. Overall I would highly recommend this program to anyone wanting to pursue an online MBA.
This is an excellent school, offering a great program totally online with a very high quality of education. The instructors are very knowledgeable, highly qualified, and up to date. There is no difference between online and in class students; both have access to the same information, tools, and learning resources including libraries, exams, and even instructors office hours. Because I have an engineering background, I had to pass prerequisite courses in business at MSU which helped me a lot to go through the MBA program smoothly. Now I'm in the last semester. I enjoyed the program a lot and I learned much more than I expected. I think this program was the best choice for me. I had many admission offers from reputable in class, residential universities, but I chose Mississippi State because of the convenience and the excellent reputation of this program.
