When it comes to taking up an MBA, the location of the university can make all the difference.

An MBA from a top US university will impress employers a whole lot more than one from an unknown institution.

With technology more advanced than ever, your location is slowly becoming irrelevant as more US universities offer online versions of the popular postgraduate degree.

According to MBA Central, an online MBA is perfect for business managers with at least two years experience who want to take their career to the next level.

On top of that, those with prior business qualifications “may be able to waive multiple credit hours of foundational courses which saves time and money”.

To help you decide on the best online MBA in the US, we’ve compiled the top three from MBA Central’s 30 Best Online MBA Degree Programmes list.

For this institution’s online MBA, you can choose to focus on Supply Chain Management, Business Analytics, International Business, Marketing, or Finance.

The programme is widely recognised for the quality of its degree and stellar support services. Though students typically take three years to complete this online MBA, you can choose to do an accelerated programme in one and a half years. This will be hectic, but lighter on your pocket.

However, this quality comes at a price – over US$30,000 in total tuition fees every year, according to MBA Central.
