Where can I take evening classes in Boston?

I live in the boston area and am looking for a college were I can take evening classes. I already have an Associate of Arts Transfer Degree, from a community college. I had a 3.69 GPA. I would like to go into Business Management, and get a MBA. I may need to take a couple additional classes before applying to the Business program.


I have looked at several colleges, but the ones I found are Suffolk and UMass Boston that have evening classes. I know UMass Amherst has a better business program, but I have a god full time job and don't want to move. If you have taken evening classes at either let me know what you thought. Are the profs good, are they available to you if you need help or have questions? Is the scheduling flexible? Do you know of any other colleges in the area that offer evening classes?





Thank you!|||There are some great schools that offer a BA or BS in business, via their continuing ed program, at night. I'll list a few, and you can check their websites for details:





- Suffolk University


- UMass Boston (both of which you mentioned, of course)


- Northeastern


- Harvard (via their extension school)


- Boston College


- Boston University





And just outside the city at:


- UMass Lowell


- UMass Dartmouth


- Curry College


- Babson


- Bentley


- Worcester Polytechnic (at their campus on 128)





When you go on for your MBA, you'll want to be sure to get into both an AACSB accredited program, and one that has a decent reputation in your region. And lots of good schools offer part-time MBAs near you:


- Bentley College


- Babson


- Boston University


- Boston College


- Suffolk (check their accreditation status, though. I'm not as familiar with them. They're also, out of this list, the one with the least "oomph" in terms of reputation/name.)





It is important that your MBA be from an AACSB accredited school, as some employers won't hire you if it is not. And reputation of program does matter, so try to get into the best program that you can.





On the undergraduate level, make sure the university is regionally accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. That's the type of accreditation that most employers and grad schools want. The schools I listed do have this.|||Boston University has evening and weekend classes. In fact, Boston is crawling with programs that offer night programs - Simmons, Northeastern, Bentley, to name a few.





Unless you're going to a top-20 program, there isn't a hill of beans difference between Suffolk, UMass-Boston, UMass-Amherst, BU, or most of the others. So just go with what's convenient unless you can get into Harvard or Sloan.
