I graduated from the program with a BS in 2002. If you have a busy life and traditional classroom settings won't fit your schedule or lifestyle, then EXD is perfect. I have lived around the world, working the whole time and raising children. This program enabled me to schedule my academics into the moments available - lunchtime, nighttime, weekends, etc. Its flexibility to take classes that are relevant to you as opposed to a required list is a real plus when you are older and know what you want to learn in life.

You do have to have some self discipline - there is no one to crack the whip and keep you working. Self motivation is very important in this program.

It is also a quality program. I just finished my MBA at another school with honors, so I wasn't lacking anything doing the degree non-traditionally.
