I am doing my second semester in part-time MBA at GWU.
Our program is flexible, so I can choose the work load. Since you are planning to take 6 credits a semester, I would assume that Ross is also offering flexible pt MBA. This flexibility would not be possible in part-time programs that offer only cohort settings.
I have two kids, but they are already 10 and 15, so it seems like much easier than having a baby around, even if only one. I will rub it again to you, that spousal support (and in my case kids too) is paramount. They know I am not much accessible during the semester, and during the finals and a week leading to it I just announce that I am on a virtual leave of absense, even if they see me around the house
. My wife is working full-time, just like myself, so she has to take almost a double of house responsibilities. That said, I still have some of my share of duties in the house: taking kids on extracurricular activities, parties, "manly" chores around the house, etc.
At GWSB we have modular curriculum, which means 7 weeks for a course, each 1.5 credits. In my second module of fall semester I had three classes, i.e. three nights a week out at school, plus homework, plus it was my first semester in graduate program after many years from my last formal education at undegraduate level. All in all, between Thanksgiving and the last final on December 17 I felt like a little kid whose Christmas was stolen by Grinch, err.. MBA studies
I am keeping a blog about my part-time MBA experience, so you can get a bit more insight on what it's like:
