That was my point, and re-reading my post I didn't express the idea very well.

The question was if an ERAU masters was looked at as any less valuable than one from another school....and my point was that unless your MBA says "Wharton" on it (or any of the other top business schools, in which case it will mean something), then all MBAs are looked at essentially equally (on the second tier).
Gotcha!

The only thing I would add about ERAU is to be as broad as you can. Anything that specifically says "Aviation" is going to limit your marketability...it's kind of like a house: if you personalize it too much it'll never sell.

One other consideration; the perception in some companies is that if you get a degree while working full time it's an example of being able to managed a workload that a full time student won't be exposed to (I have first hand knowledge of this)...that excludes the top 20 though.
