Big Grin List?
Posted by: Cocolisa1 - 05-15-2024, 09:50 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (8)

So is there a list of non-MBA cheap degrees in under a year that are competency-based? 
Someone made an excellent point yesterday on my question. Not everyone needs an MBA and the only ones listed are those for MBA

  It Costs Over $10 Million in Opportunity Cost to Go to College
Posted by: LevelUP - 05-14-2024, 08:29 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (7)

I actually came to this conclusion on my own and was searching the internet for an article written by someone who could properly analyze the opportunity cost of going to college.

The common statistic I see is that people who go to college make $1 million more than high school graduates. However, the opportunity cost isn't factored in.

  "New Ivies" According to Forbes
Posted by: sanantone - 05-14-2024, 07:03 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (4)

Forbes claims that employers are souring on the Ivy League colleges. Some of the listed schools have long been classified by some as Ivy Plus, Southern Ivies, or Public Ivies, but I'm just sharing the latest news. 



The Public Ivies:

Binghamton University (New York)
Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia) 
University of Florida
University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
University of Maryland-College Park
University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill
University of Texas-Austin
University of Virginia
University of Wisconsin-Madison (Wisconsin)
Note: Military academies were not included in their analysis and the University of California universities were excluded as well because they don’t consider test scores. 

The Private Ivies:

Boston College (Massachusetts)
Carnegie Mellon University (Pennsylvania)
Emory University (Georgia)
Georgetown University (District of Columbia)
Johns Hopkins University (Maryland)
Northwestern University (Illinois)
Rice University (Texas)
University of Notre Dame (Indiana)
University of Southern California
Vanderbilt University (Tennessee)
Note: Forbes’ analysis excluded schools with fewer than 4,000 students, the “Ancient Eight,” and four Ivy-plus schools: Stanford, MIT, Duke, and the University of Chicago.

Information WGU MHA
Posted by: Cocolisa1 - 05-14-2024, 09:11 AM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (11)

I was informed that I can't join the MHA program at WGU due to my lack of work experience in the field. I hold certifications as a Drug and Alcohol counselor in NY and as a phlebotomist. Suggestions on where I can go to GRAD school? I have a B.L.S. in Management and Pre-Law from UMPI. 

Maybe public health instead; I'm not sure at this point, honestly, and any help will do. thanks

I'm just curious. Yesterday something was posted in Arabic script. According to Google translate it was regarding a method to calculate one's age based on the Islamic calendar. I asked what was the purpose of the post. I am not able to find the post this morning. Was it deleted?

  ASBA at TESU
Posted by: cryanoheight - 05-13-2024, 01:07 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (1)

Hello,

I started working on an associate's degree in business administration several years ago. Life got in the way, and I had to put that on hold for quite a while. 

Anyway, it looks like things have changed, and I'm not sure where to pick up. I'm still interested in an ASBA from TESU, but I don't know what might transfer in/what's still valid. Can anyone help me?

Here's what I have completed:
