Has anyone sent their child to Touro College in Jerusaem while in Yeshiva in Israel? I am looking for feedback on the program.

I took several classes there but it was 10 years ago.

I enjoyed it for the most part. I was a very serious student and enjoyed the challenging courses. A couple of times I got annoyed at professors who would “dumb down” the workload when students complained that it was “too hard” because to me that felt like an extension of high school (middle school?) and not something that should happen in college. (And my (public) high school would NEVER have given in to those kinds of complaints either!)

That said, I enjoyed my classes and loved the atmosphere of the place and the location was easy to get to. My credits all transferred to the state college in the US that I graduated from.

Depends what career your looking at.
If you simply want to earn a bachelor's degree and continue to a master's in the US, there are faster programs.
Just sayin

Let's say you want to go for an MBA. What quicker options are out there?

Most MBA program Ms just require a basic bachelor's degree with a 3.0 and above GPA and a GMAT score.
Every school has its own exactl criteria.
I would suggest an Excelsior degree you can graduate with a full bachelor's in less than a year.
Try Eec Degrees they seem to be the simplest easiest and cheapest. They also have testing in Israel as well as in the states

Sure. It's the GMAT and GPA that count.

That is poor advice.

That may be true for some MBA programs - but not as a general rule.

They look at more than just numbers.

As a professional career advisor I disagree.

Unless your shooting for Yale or an ivy league school, it's the marks and entry exams that carry weight.

Yale is an Ivy League school.

If the goal is to go to a program with a solid reputation - expect that the admissions program will ferret out people who have transcripts that show 4 years of credits earned in 1 year.
