Investigate any MBA program carefully before applying. Many new for-profit schools have been started and offer on-line programs but some are worthless. What to look for: Schools’ accreditation status (AACSB accreditation or at least AACSB membership is preferred for the MBA) , tuition cost, class sizes, program length. Is the faculty mostly Ph. D. s qualified in business fields? Is the faculty permanent or part-time adjunct teachers who are not as qualified? Is the faculty well published? What are the average entrance exam scores of the students? For instance, if students take the GMAT, is their average below 550 or above 580? Do most students have 2-4 years work experience before starting the program?
If the school has a full-time program, what are the starting salaries of graduates? How many graduates have job offers within 3 months of graduation? If their full-time students are not doing well in the job market, maybe the quality of the program has to be questioned. And if the full-time students are doing well, are the on-line students taught by the same teachers?
Before you decide on an MBA program explore the Internet for information on available programs. There is a lot of information available in free public service sites. Some sites are limited to specific countries, such as Germany, UK, or Australia. Some list a small number of select schools, while others may include more than 2,000 MBA programs listed worldwide. You can find the program that best fits you. You can search for programs by location (US, Europe, Far East, etc. ), by concentration (finance, marketing, aviation management, health management, accounting, etc. ), by type of program (full-time, distance learning, part-time, executive, and accelerated), and by type of degree (MBA, MS, Ph. D). In some cases you can select your own criteria and preferences to get a list of universities that satisfy your needs.
You can find data on entrance requirements, program costs, program characteristics, joint degrees such as MBA/JD, and much more. Some sites have links to the schools’ web sites, or provide email addresses to contact schools of your choice, and send them pre-applications. You can find lists of top schools ranked by various periodicals or ranked by starting salaries of graduates, GMAT scores, and other criteria. Generally you should stay away from any sites that require you to pay to get information or that promise to find scholarships for you or ensure acceptance into a program. Before you provide any personal information to a site, be sure to read their privacy policy and make sure they are not harvesting email addresses for sale.
edu. 2kool4u. net – it provides info about this school, tips to apply and its scholarships.
In my opinion, it is doubtful. It is a one-year program that does not require the GMAT, which is already a minus. Most one-year MBA programs require at least some undergraduate business courses, if not a degree, because you can’t get enough management courses in a year if you did not have at least exposure to financial and managerial accounting, finance, and marketing. Salem International does not. There is a good reason why MBA programs that accept any undergraduate major require two years to complete. I don’t think Salem is able to provide a good education.
Salem is a for-profit private school which was established years ago as Salem College and probably turned for-profit fairly recently and started on-line courses. Many small not-for-profit schools have been acquired recently by for-profit organizations who want the school’s local accreditation and use them to start on-line programs. Salem may be one of these. Their web site does not list any faculty, and they provide almost none of the information disclosed by schools listed in the Official MBA Guide disclose, which is an authoritative free public service, with more than 2,000 MBA programs included. I could not find on their web site what they charge for tuition.
