There is a legitimate reason for this. I am currently in the process of applying to law school. Although a native Californian, there might be a chance that I will have to relocate to the East Coast, literally a chilling prospect. In preparation, I spend a lot of time talking to fellow students about their plans after graduation. For those in pursuit of an MBA, a tough road is ahead.
Most business schools don t like to take students directly out of college.
They want work experience. Instead, as a requirement for admission, a potential student must be 23 years old and employed with a full-time job. Although University of Phoenix has a traditional brick and mortar campus, students enrolled in University of Phoenix Online do not study at the traditional campus their education is offered completely on-line. When students take a course from University of Phoenix Online, they engage in asynchronous learning and do not meet in real-time. Instead, lectures, questions and assignments are retrieved from the Web by the students and reviewed off-line.
