How Online MBA Graduates Rate Their Programs by: Kristy Bleizeffer on November 27, 2023 | 5,752 Views November 27, 2023 Copy Link Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Email Share on LinkedIn Share on WhatsApp Share on Reddit FORMAT & FLEXIBILITY This section includes responses to three survey questions focusing on program format: Level of satisfaction with the program’s synchronous (or live) sessions, satisfaction with the asynchronous content, and satisfaction with the program’s flexibility. Most online MBA programs have a blend of synchronous classes, which are live and “in-person” with asynchronous recorded videos which students can watch on their own time. The two tables below show how alumni at each school rated their satisfaction with both aspects of their program. Rate your level of satisfaction with the synchronous sessions.

But some schools are better at doing it than others, according to their recent grads. This year the best was University of Denver (Daniels) at 9.85. Other schools earning high scores from their alums are Bryant University, Lehigh University, and University of Nebraska-Lincoln. Rate your satisfaction with the program’s flexibility.
