Hello all,

I am looking for the cheapest online or distance MBA course which is accredited by either AACSB , AMBA or EQUIS.
I will be unable to pursue full time due to family commitments and financial constraints.
Hence I am looking for an accredited online/distance MBA which is the cheapest in the world.

Please guide

@Duncan and all : Please guide me

I assume you want to study in English, which excludes an accredited programme offered in Romanian. ESCEM seems to be cheapest, but you need to ask for their best price. Otherwise there are some cheap US programmes like North Dakota and South Dakota.

Thanks Duncan,
Yes I would pursue the course in English.

But while checking AACSB site, I couldnt find the name of ESCEM there. May be they were earlier accredited.
US programmes seemed to be a bit costly. Hence looking for online programmes apart from US. MBA or MBM/MIM programme which is also accredited will also work for me in moving upward in my current company

What is your price range ?

I am looking for the cheapest one..
Within 5000-6000 euros or pounds will be perfect for me

Hope this helps

ESCEM is in France, so it is accredited by EQUIS. AASCB accreditation is more common in the US.

OK thank you..
Any other options, that u have in mind?
I mean any other colleges?
Accredited programmes from any subcontinent will work

Adbo's found a nice list but sadly it uses instate pricing which won't be available to you.

Perhaps an alternative to an MBA will be the University of London MSc taught by the LSE. That is within your budget and has a graduate entry track. It also offers a Graduate Diploma in management.

*Good accredited school start from 17-18000 I think

*Open Uni of Cyprus is legit recognized university, the only one with 5500e price. but without one of the 3 accreditations. It is a public university of a EU country so pretty real

*UoL Queen Mary MBA may have the best price for your country and is probably your best option

*You should consider some diplomas or other qualifications instead of MBA if your budget is so low

Of course a UoL degree does not come from the directing school but from UoL, so it has none of the triple crowns.

*Good accredited school start from 17-18000 I think

Is anybody considering the Online MBAs at Bradford or Durham? I will be applying soon, perhaps to both of them.

If I undertand correctly, governement universities dosen't need any accreditations?

Accreditation is voluntary. It shows that you meet a higher standard than the minimum. All the UK universities with accreditation are government universities (with the exception of Hult it absorbed Ashridge, which was a staff training college serving UK government and nationalized industries).
