Can you answer RameelRaymundo’s question about MBA?:

im planning on getting married soon, but i do still want to go the grad school (mba). My university offers a night mba program. Anyone think this balancing act of work/married life/class at night is doable?

    I recommend you to go with online MBA programs like CalU - caluniversity.edu It is a online institution which offers distance learning programs in Masters and Doctorate and California InterContinental University’s programs are accredited by the Accrediting Commission of the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC). However with an online program you will be able to find a program that works around your personal lifestyle and schedule.The biggest benefit of online degree opportunities such as accredited online MBA programs is the fact that you will be able to work on your own time and earn your degree at your own pace.

    MBA Feedback: Yeah…I work full-time (teacher), go to class at night (getting my Master’s), and have an almost 2-year old (single mom).

    MBA Feedback: My husband and I both work full time. I am a teacher and he is an accountant. We have 2 children in many activities. We are both working on masters degrees. We are taking online classes. He is getting his MBA with a focus on accounting completely online. He also teaches 2 classes at the local community college. It hard, but doable if you want to do it.

    MBA Feedback: Possible, yes, but something has to give. If you are serious about your studies and your job, you put a lot of strain on the marriage. If you maintain your marriage and do your job, your grades will suffer. If you maintain your marriage and hit the books hard, your boss will notice the difference in your job performance. Family planning is your business, not mine, but a baby would make things even more challenging.
