I already have a MBA from a brick and mortar residential school in Florida and wanted to finish my Masters in Accounting as well to get better prepared for the CPA exam and license. I only wanted to enroll in an AACSB program that offers affordable tuition. I previously took graduate level accounting courses at University of West Florida. But I would tell you South Dakota has a better program. Their approach makes this online program more than just exam and self studying. Professors offer live lecture every week plus quizzes and presentations geared toward the term paper. Professors respond very quickly on any question as do the MPA advisers. This is my first semester a USD and I am happy with my decision.
I would highly recommend the HSAD MBA program at USD. The courses are very compelling and I have learned a lot. My courses are immediately applicable to my career development and job performance. I was even able to do an internship in Europe over the summer. You cannot beat the price and the quality is there.
This school has exceeded my expectations. The quality of the online technology used to facilitate the learning process is exceptional. The professors are on par with my undergraduate business school, which was a top 50 or 100 (depending on who's ranking it is) nationally ranked university. This combined with program affordability make DSU online a top value program.
I researched online MBA programs extensively before selecting USD's Online MBA program. A primary factor in my selection process was GetEducated's high rating of the program. Having now taken the majority of the courses in the program of study, I understand why it is rated so highly. The courses are outstanding, adhering to AACSB standards. Additionally, the course material is delivered utilizing cutting edge technologies, and is taught by the same professors teaching the on-campus courses. Having taken some prerequisite courses at some of the other online programs mentioned on GetEducated, I’m comfortable saying there is no comparison in the quality of education I am receiving in USD’s Online MBA program. It is evident that a great deal of thought and effort has been put into this program. I highly recommend USD’s online MBA program and strongly encourage anyone considering applying for an online MBA program to seriously consider USD.
I graduated with a BS in Accounting and the B School provided with the tools and education to be successful upon graduation. Since graduation, I have recruited many USD graduates to our Company and we have been very pleased with their skills and abilities.
I am an employer who hires graduates from the University of South Dakota and their busienss school. I have found these graduates to be ready for today's market place. Retention rate is also high with hiring from the school. They listen to any suggestions as an employer I bring to them. They seek out employers to work with their students way before graduation. Highly recommend.
The USD School of Business provided me with an opportunity to learn valuable lessons about how to succeed in the world, which should be the goal of every school. The faculty provided tremendous direction and always had the student's best interest in mind. The opportunities to participate in and potentially lead extracurricular organizations is a rare experience that I wish could do all over again. If you are looking for a wonderful experience, with great professors, and the ability to succeed when you graduate; look no further.
As a student at USD I have had many opportunities to excel both academically and professionally. The accounting program in particular is top of the line. I would recommend this school to anyone in the area that is considering pursuing a degree in business.
My experience completing the MBA program at The University of South Dakota was both positive and encouraging. The professors are truly interested in the success of their students and excel at providing challenging coursework that is relevant to today's business world.
Overall, the MBA program at The University of South Dakota provided me with a solid foundation to build my career on. I would recommend this program to all who are interested in a challenging, high quality, affordable MBA program.
