I am considering going for my MBA. With kids and a career, it will be difficult to physically attend classes on a campus. There are a lot of universities offering online degrees, but how are they respected in the business world? Do potential employers consider them “as good as” a traditional MBA degree? Or is it not even an issue?

I’ve hired many wonderful people that got their degrees online. A degree is a degree whether from Community college, online, or university. As long as it is an accredited school, no problem.
You know what I love about people who get online degrees? It shows me that they have the discipline, dedication and drive to set goals and get there on there own!
It depends on where you are working. If you work for a less competitive job, no one will care where you got it from as long as you have one. But if you are trying to land a competitive job, people will laugh when they see your resume.
It’s not as respected, but you can still find a job.















I can only make the recommendation that you get a degree that is AACSB accredited. Also, don’t mention that your degree was online, a good school won’t designate that it was obtained online.
