PhD in Business Administration

Well stated.  You get what you put into any program, and the research and writing rigor at NCU is what it should be...tough.

It took me a little over 5 years to get my PhD-BA in applied computer science at NCU. A lot of works and stressful nights were spent. Fortunately, this is an online school allowing me to manage those study and work time on my own schedule. I learned a lot from NCU. It's not easy but it's possible with hardwork you put into it.

Well put!
I agree whole heartedly.

I'm currently half completed with my PhD in Business Administration (Accounting Emphasis) and am very pleased that what I have received is in line with my expectations, except with the tuition increases, which I guess should be expected, if you look at other schools.
The course work is excellent and have been able to complete most of the courses in less time than they allow, which considering I have two jobs, is good (Time management is a must).
My only disappointment is that if you finish a course early, your grade is not posted till the end of the fully allotted time, but this is a minor inconvenience.
The course assignments, now that I am well into my specialty (2 classes from starting research) are interesting and definitely good for my work.
I highly recommend NCU if you manage time well, are motivated to learn on your own and have the time to complete the program.

I am an Assistant Professor of Accounting (CPA, M.Acc, MBA) at a regionally accredited four-year college. I am a learner in NCUs PhD - Business Administration (Advanced Accounting) program.

NCU's Businss and Technology programs are fully accredited by ACBSP and has regional accreditation from the Higher Learner Commission.  It is doubtful that this will change as NCU has gone through the accreditation process prescribed by ACBSP.

NCU is the ONLY online program the administration at my four-year, private college would "approve" as pursue tenure.

In comparison, Capella University is ONLY regionally accredited.

Most students including the whiners on this sight are not prepared for the challenges of earning a PhD.  Across the board, only 50% of learners who enter ANY PhD programs actually graduate.

For accounting professors, this means the upward pressure on the national average salary (now $120,000+) will continue.

NCU offers accounting professors who are professionally qualified the opportunity to get an ACBSP accredited PhD to help fill the severe shortage of PhDs in accounting at an extremely reasonable price.

Call the whiners what they are.  (But, don't call them PhDs.)

I am currently attending NCU as a student seeking a Phd.  The work is challenging - what do you expect in a Phd program?  The teachers are no better or worse than most other schools, unless you can pay for Ivy League - then by all means, go there!  The curriculum is no different from other Phd business programs - guess you haven't looked around! Your success is up to you - your journey at NCU will be what you make of it!

Are any graduates of the PhD in Business Administration teaching at ACBSP accredited colleges?

I have taken many classes at online schools and traditional schools.  NCU is no better or worst then any others.  For the price and freedom to do the work when you want, it can not be beat!

Response to 'Worst college I've ever attended...'
I understand your feelings. I had a very bad start with the school also and felt the same way. I was about to quit but an instructor encouraged me to stay. I'm glad I did and am grateful for his encouragement.  For those who have not attended NCU before, I think some prep work would be helpful (let your chair and advisor know why you want to drop someone). I'm sure this is true for many schools. The problems you describe are common for lots of schools. Things get even more difficult when all contact is primarily online. I recommend not having an instructor from overseas (if you are in North America) incase you need to call. I recommend asking an instructor if you can him or her if you are having trouble. Also call your advisor and ask for advice. Realize that all along the way there will be many obsticles. You need to make sure you can work with the teachers you get, if not drop them. If you are in a Ph. D. program, make sure you select a good chair. Your committee members need to be supportive of you. If not, drop the ones that are not helpful. If you have the right combination of people helping you, you will succeed. If not, you're in trouble. Your success requires that you have a good team working with you and that you continue to nurture team communication as you move along. You also need to make positive adjustments anytime your team changes (new chair, new members, new advisor). Ask questions and clarify requirements. Do what is requested. Keep copies of all your work and copies of your e-mails. Be prepared at all times to justify your positions. The whole process can be very trying and difficult. You may want to 'often' quit. Have people in place to remind you not to give up.

I am starting my studies this June at NCU.  My research tells me tha NCU is a very good school.  I already have a Ph.D and five masters.  I look forward to the challange completing my second Ph.D.

I have finished my PhD as of 9/08 and must say I enjoyed the 4.5 years of hard work. A PhD requires a tremendous amount of work and I would not expect my Chair to hold my hand along the way. I was given good support and was expected to perform to the level of a PhD and NCU held me to that and I thank them for this. I did not want to go to a school that just handed me a diploma. I wanted to earn it. NCU will work for the highly motivated student who puts forth the effort. I recommend this school to any serious student.
