I did not join, but I had a few discussions with the admissions people for @UNC and was fairly impressed with how they designed the program. I liked the Exchange program that gave you an opportunity to travel and study at another partner school at no extra cost, although it was never made clear to me just exactly how that would work with an online program. I also appreciated the focus on experiential learning in an online program, like the program that sends teams of students to work on strategy with a business or non-profit, all of these felt somewhat unique for an online only program.
I was more interested in in person learning though, so this was the only online program that I seriously investigated. I do know that it is fairly expensive for an online program, costing more than almost all of the in-person MBAs they offer, but it is also seems to be one of the better respected online programs in the U.S. (along with Kelley).
