I spent several months researching executive MBA programs out-of-state at some of the more prestigious universities. However, due to the cost and time commitment of traveling to these programs, I realized that I would need to choose a program locally or go back to school full-time. Given my position at my company and my stage in life, going back to school full-time was not an option, so I entered UALR’s Executive MBA program. I was unexpectedly impressed by the quality of | instruction by the professors and their ability to add “real business experience” to the subject matter. I doubt that I could have received any better master-level experience at any other university in the country. The Executive MBA program at UALR has far exceeded my expectations.
