Hello PO3 Jae Young Jeon. Please check out American Military University's Bachelor's in Business Administration. We are 100% online and we start classes the first Monday of every month. Our classroom is set up so that you can log in and complete your weekly assignments when you have time in your own schedule, so there are no set log in times or dates. Our Business programs have a special accreditation through the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs. If you have any questions, please let me know!

I would look for a school with AACSB accreditation. That is actually important. There are some good business schools with other accreditations, but if you further your education into a MBA or other graduate business degree, top schools will not recognize non-AACSB schools.

Some schools with great undergraduate Business programs:
-Old Dominion: BSBA in Accounting, Business Admin, Marketing, Finance, Management, Info Sys available
-Kansas State: BBA in General Business
-Florida International University
-Drexel University
-Colorado State
-University of Iowa
-Penn State: BS in Business and Finance
-University of Massachusettes
-Cal State Fullerton

There are many more out there, but these are a few that I know about. KState, Old Dominion, Colorado State, and Penn State are all extremely military friendly, and offer military discounts.

Penn State has a special grant for members of the military that are working on an undergraduate degree. It is only $64 per credit hour above the TA cap, which means that an incredible degree from a top school can be had for very cheap. If the Soldier qualified for a Pell Grant or other scholarship, the degree could be free. Even the loans or paying out of pocket would be relatively low if the SM utilized TA. Add in the GI Bill and they are able to afford it.

If I were in PO3 Jeon's shoes, I would consider a degree through Penn State or Old Dominion utilizing Grants and TA, then seek a MBA through Penn State, Washington, Arizona, OK State, Florida State, or another highly rated school that can be coverred by the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Even top MBAs from Maryland, Villanova, NC, Purdue, and Indiana may be workable through the Post-9/11 GI Bill.

Post is a good school too. I was in Waterbury earlier today. They have a great reputation in the area. Outside of the region, not as many employers are as aware of the great leaders they are producing. That can make things a challenge, but a solid resume of experience can help overcome that easily.

I would add UMUC to the list. Can't talk to their undergrad specifically, but I was pleased with the graduate program.

I do not recommend complete degrees online. Too many schools are more interested in your money than you. I have an AS, BSN, and MSHS and the online education was by far the weakest.

University of Phoenix, Northcentral University in AZ, Villanova or American Military Univ. All take Tuition Assistance and the class costs are limited to the TA level. You can even use your Military transcripts to cover some of the electives, and they all accept the CLEP exams. CLEPs are free and there are a gazillion subject areas.

I just finished my B.A. in Accounting through St. Leo University. It was a good program abnd classes are 8-weeks long which helps get more knocked out.

They also have the ability to continue on with the Masters program.

I actually went to my Graduation as I own a place near the college.

Luckily I am currently in an instructor slot so my work hours are usually set. That is the way I managed finishing this past year.

The On-Line Assignments and Exams are pretty straight forward. All of my assignments were given days to be uploaded. There are discussion questions for the group aspect and then the Exams are timed so once you start you have to already know the information as you do not have time to look anything up.
I hope this helps and definitely good luck. Utilize what the Military offers to complete your education goals. :)
