To answer the question, the Athabasca MBA website shows a total cost of $44,500. UofC lists about $35,000 just for the registration fees......likely push into the low $50k range by the time materials and extras are factored in. Certainly comparable cost wise.

Now I'm probably gonna get roasted for this, but I'm one of those guys that doesn't believe MBAs are worth the cost.....no matter where they come from.

I actually see more value in obtaining a second degree or diploma. Yes, it will likely take twice as long, but it will also cost half as much.

Dunno buddy, I just see being well versed in Business and an entirely different area (science, language, politics, anything) be a stronger value.
