Has anyone done the part time MBA program and Boston College Carroll School of Management? I have read all of the downsides of a part time MBA but in my mid 30s, two kids under two years old, a mortgage and a good full time job, a part time MBA seems like a better option. Any suggestions on how to make the most of it?

What’s your goal for the MBA? I’d say an outsized portion of the value is in networking, which is much harder when you’re part-time (I’m sure you know this already)

If your goal however is a pay raise due to having an MBA or something similar, then it won’t be as much of a concern

D1 thanks! I realize I was pretty vague but I appreciate the input.
