I’ll admit that most of the time the only time I don’t feel like a princess is at my job. I think it would totally change if I had a master’s degree, although I don’t know what I’d get it in yet. Maybe I’d consider an online IT degree. Of course since I’m older I just don’t have the time or luxury to stop working and go back to school. I’d need to find something that fit into my schedule, so an online degree would really be the only way I could do it.
I’ve been looking at Western Governors Online University and it has several things that are really different form the other online schools that I’ve looked at. They focus on a student community and there’s also a mentoring program. Overall it sounds like a tighter knit community than the school where I did my bachelor’s degree.
I really like the assessment approach to things. This will keep the students from having to just go through the same stuff they already know and pay money to do so. This is great if you’ve already worked in your field. This also gives you the opportunity to work as fast as you can go so you can graduate quicker. You can even spend less money because you pay per term instead of by the credit.
Combine that with all of the accreditation and financial resources available for students and it’s honestly one of the most extensive online universities that I’ve look at.
