My experience so far has been tremendous. Since Bakke was launched officially in Guyana, I enrolled as student in the MBA programme. I actually switched from another on-line university in which I was enrolled to pursue my MBA. However, in that university there was something missing. I was doing well in the class work, readings but I was unable to comfortably share my faith experiences.
When I transferred to Bakke, it was where I needed to be. The faculty, support staff, are all amazing and supportive. In the first session, the orientation, I knew I was in the right place.

It has been over 4 months since my withdrawal and no more communication. Bakke identified as a Christian...
