I would like to know which Online MBA programs that offer a concentration in Marketing are the most respected and do not require the GMAT/GRE. Thank you in advance!
Thank you very much Vicky! Also, one other quick question…I am also looking at a Masters in Integrated Marketing Communications. So far, West Virginia University and Eastern Michigan University has an online program.
Good question. If you mean “academically respected” I can’t find any objective rating that would put one of these online programs over the other. In terms of employment — or employer acceptance — this factor tends to be very regional. If I were in the Midwest I’d go with EMU; but I were on the east coast or south I’d go with West Virginia. The WVA program does have stricter traditional admission requirements so most academic types would see it as being “more competitive.”
All the best

Hi Scott,
Good question. Here are some thoughts that might help you.
Get Educated profiles hundreds of online mba programs.
Another way to approach your search is to consult our list of AACSB online MBAs that do not require GRE or GMAT.
Here is the list of MBAs with concentrations in Marketing from ONLY AACSB accredited schools:
1. Northeastern University D’Amore-McKim School of Business
Graduate Master of Business Administration / Marketing Est. Cost: $65,000
2. University of Wisconsin-Whitewater College of Business and Economics – Graduate
Master of Business Administration / Marketing Est. Cost: $21,600
3. University of Colorado at Colorado Springs Graduate School of Business Administration
Master of Business Administration / Marketing Est. Cost: $26,136
4. Saint Joseph’s University Erivan K. Haub School of Business – Graduate
Executive Pharmaceutical Marketing Master of Business Administration
I assume St. Joes is too narrow for you. The ONLY one of these that does not seem to require a GRE / GMAT is Northeastern.
You may want to broaden your search to include ANY level of accreditation for a marketing MBA if the NO GRE/GMAT is your most important criteria.
Happy Searching!
