I would NOT recommend attending this online program. The curriculum is fine; However, the hoops they make you jump through to complete your degree are not worth it. The school enrolls online MBA students and then forces you to fly to 1 of 2 destinations to complete the 3 required in-person residencies. The only locations they offer are New York and New Orleans They start on a Thursday and end Sunday evening; this means you are missing Wednesday-Tuesday. They only allow you to REQUEST admittance to... Read More these residencies a couple of months ahead of schedule and there are limited seats, therefore you CAN NOT plan ahead for travel or other commitments until you are admitted to the residency. Additionally, the 3 required residencies are only offered once a semester, so if the weekend they choose is impossible for you (typically never fits with my schedule as a business owner). There is no alternative to this and I am registered for my last classes, yet have been unable to attend residencies elongating my completion. I requested the first residency and was denied and have not been able to attend one since. They have zero solutions for this issue. Find somewhere else, honestly unless you are able to fly across the country and miss a week of work at the drop of a hat with the current prices to travel find another institution.

There are multiple opportunities to meet faculty, visit the school and practice school spirit with a group of your peers. As a multiracial woman I was impressed...

Overall the MBA program at Syracuse University's Whitman School of Management is all inclusive of a quality learning and networking environment.
