Best of the State Liscenced and Approved Post Secondary Educational Insitutions
Hello:
I have decided to go the state licensed route for my MBA. I have narrowed down my choices to be: Pacific Western Barrington University Senior University International Kennedy-Western I realize that to folks considering only RA options none of the schools presented would be viable. However, I feel that a state licensed and approved degree for me would be satisfactory. All are visited by their state's DoE and subject to reviews. Amongst the lot, I am leaning towards Barrington. Why, I am truly fascinated with their INNOVATION MBA program. http://www.barrington.edu/innovation.html I spoke with the instructor this evening and he is an Innovation Expert. He leads a company and develops the courses for Barrington. His company jut won a huge project rolling out Innovation at a Large Food Conglomerate. Apparently CEO's are seeking innovation. What appeals to me about PW is the $$$, for less than $3,000.00 I can earn an MBA. Senior is also appealing because it is project based. Kennedy has it's merits and a quality EMBA option. State Licensed Bigotry aside - what do the smart folks at Degree Info suggest amongst the four presented? In my opinion, the four represented are solid schools in the State Licensed arena. Thanks RJT - perhaps one day, Innovative Certified.

The last I read about Senior, they were seeking to be accredited in South Africa. Is that still on the cards?
Cheers, George

I cannot recommend any of the ones you mention, but I must warn you that Senior International University is not cosidered a Canadian University although it is physically located in Canada, so I have no idea why you have it as a state approved since they only have a post secondary license to operate a school in the province of British Columbia. I have heard only bad comments about it and seen some pictures of its primacies (not impressive at all). Barrington is a fraud, when I requested information about this fine institution i was offered a degree for few thousands and a few pages thesis. From your list, pacific western seems to be the best from the worst. Some guys are actually teaching with its degrees in Canada. |

This is just another red herring, not worth chasing.

If he's a real student then he's just digging his hole deeper by considering another unaccredited degree. I admit that there may be minimal utility to an unaccredited degree topping off one's resume. I can see no utility in basing an entire academic career on degree mills as RJT claims to be doing. One could more easily and cheaply fabricate the whole academic career based on degree mills that have gone out of business? It would be just as verifiable as RJT's academic resume will likely eventually become? Wyoming and Montana will eventually pass laws that chase the degree mills out of their states. At that point what do you plan to do, RJT? Last edited by Bill Huffman; 08-02-2002 at 07:13 AM. |

Regarding your statement, "State Licensed Bigotry aside ,,," , it is ridiculous statements like this that have marked you as a likely shill or troll. It screams such stupidity that I have a very difficult time believing that someone could actually believe it. Are you aware that probably all degree mills that have been proven frauds in a court of law had a state license to operate? KWU lost their state license in two states before they ended up in Wyoming. I doubt they've changed their academic program that much since then. If state license is so important to you why is it unimportant that KWU had to bounce to new states to get new licenses? |
