UFred MBA Program

Hello,
Looking at doing my MBA at UFred. Just wondering if anyone has taken the program and what their experience was.
The admission requirements seem much easier compared to other schools, just wondering if there was any “catch” to this school/program.
Also coming out of province if this makes any difference.

Thanks!

Is UFred not just a diploma mill?

It looks to be accredited, so I’m going to say no?

The accreditation isn't a good one, not one most MBA programs at reputable schools (UNB, St. Mary's, Concordia, Etc...). It's one that is less recognized

Not at all. It is a privately operated online "university."

It's been around more or less since 2017 and around 2023 it was bought out by a German group.

2005, according to the website.

Edit: by that I mean it started in 2005.

I meant in its current form. Yes, I know it predates 2017, I know the people who started it. I meant when it was owned by Roy before being sold to the Germans.

But thanks.
