As “an early adopter of asynchronous MBA education, UF employs an exceptional framework that gives its online students a near-campus experience.” The lock-step program is broken out into cohorts, which “keeps you on track as you have to take the classes in the order given and [in] a set period of time.” However, the school “recognizes that the majority of students in the online program are working professionals…and truly try their best to be supportive and understanding.” Students say that “deadlines for projects and assignments are given with enough headway to make sure life doesn’t get in the way too much,” and faculty are “quick to respond to student's issues and…solve problems soon after they arise.”
Most professors are “outstanding and very responsive to questions” and are “strong educational leaders with years of experience in both industry and academia.” Read More...

For those with concerns about the digital environment, there's "an online module that walks you through how to take an online class" and the administration provides "clear instructions and helpful advice for succeeding in the program," with due-dates posted well in advance and assignments that "mirror the tech and functions that I am expected to use in the field." In short, "It was good to know my advisor was aware of my situation with work, my academic strengths and weaknesses, and charted a path that worked best for me."

Of course, simply getting set up with a solid curriculum is only the start, and students have similarly good things to say about how much their classmates and Read More...
