One can learn from anywhere but to dismiss online as a lower tear way of teaching/learning shows bias towards one methodology over another.

The video stated that obtaining and maintaining the technology is really no cheaper than using physical facilities. The real issue is how colleges don’t receive half the government support they it used to. Taxpayers dollars used to actually be allocated to their education once upon a time, not just the military or to bail out multimillion dollar companies (who ultimately just gave their executives bonuses while they laid off millions of lower level employees).

While I'm still a bit unsure of the direction I'm going in, I do not regret turning down that school. I worked for a total of about 4 years in higher education, and I've realized more and more just how much of a cash grab it all is. Now with the pandemic, people are realizing they're paying an astronomical amount of money for a piece of paper when you can learn everything online. I'm *thrilled* to see where this new direction might be going toward. I hope we *do* change our higher education institutions. They're hundreds of years old. What business lasts for hundreds of years without changing their practices? Let's hope for more affordable options with the intention that education should be for all.

Now, I am studying Master of Business Administration (MBA) at Imperial College London (Online with Limited Residency) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Information Technology focusing on Blockchain Technology at the University of the Cumberlands (Online). Online degrees have some pros/cons; the biggest advantages are convenience and opportunity costs. The biggest disadvantages are professional networking and internship opportunities. The best way to choose a school with a brick-and-mortar campus that offering an online degree that treats the same as a campus program. For example, Boston University offers an Online MBA via EdX for $24,000.00 comparing the $80,000.00 program on campus; while Boston University's Questrom Business School has a good reputation; however, the online MBA does not treat the same as the one campus. Also, avoiding "private for-profit" and solely ONLINE colleges and universities because they are holding lower reputations.

College is not worth it at all if you have to go into debt or if you don't have a plan. Many jobs only require a certification, or a trade school. Don't work retail your whole life either, do something professional, or something that needs to be done that no one else wants to do like cleaning sewers. Just have a plan before you spend thousands

It depends on the degree, who you get your degree with, do you have to go into debt to get it, and when will the likely ROI occur? Treat it like a big dollar investment that you have to be smart and research beforehand and it usually works out. I'm getting a master's, it will increase my salary by nearly 20-25% higher than previously, it's high demand as in such high demand I could move anywhere nearly and get a job, and it's grant funded so I'm not going into debt. Don't go into a debt and play high risk gamble that it helps. Have a plan, do your research, and talk with people who got that degree and how it worked out.

BUT you will ALSO see "At least 2 years experience in..." and the list goes on. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE EXPERIENCE, but oh wait, YOU CAN'T GET EXPERIENCE BECAUSE EMPLOYERS DON'T HIRE PEOPLE WITH NO EXPERIENCE.

Depends on the company though. Some companies value a "cheaper" workforce more than experienced. I do have a masters degree just not within the field of this company. My current employer chose to hire me even though I have no experience within my field from previous jobs or education during this pandemic. If I had experience from the industry I could've easily significantly increased my salary 2-3k.

I mean at least attempt going into the workforce, instead of operating from a position of fear that if you don't get your masters no one will want. To me it just doesn't make sense to double down in area/field that you don't have any experience working in.

Saying that the average person with a graduate degree out earns the average person with a bachelor's ignores the significant spread and overlap in the earning potential of the 2 populations. Of course, if you pursue more education with a plan and intentionality (and you have a job that might already be paying for that degree), you can be successful enough to pull up the average for the graduate degree group. If you default yourself into paying outrageous amounts of money for a piece of paper with no plan on how to convert that investment into a job, you have a high likelihood of being that part of the graduate degree population with limited economic opportunities and high debt burden.

I agree. I think those averages are misleading. A median statistic on masters degree holders’ earnings or statistics that would measure debt accumulated vs earnings would be much more informative in this situation. People with medical degrees will of course move the average way up above most earners with Masters degrees. Teachers for example require an advanced degree for the most part but are paid dirt. Then the economic factors are also not considered as wages have been consistently stagnating, cost of living has been sharply increasing (especially in large cities) and college degree cost has been consistently rising. I think these factors have to be involved when considering a masters degree. That said, some jobs are only achievable with masters degrees and many jobs that only required Bachelor degrees before now require masters as so many Bachelors are being pumped out every year. I think, the bottom line is that unless you have a concrete plan on what you’re trying to achieve, how to minimize your debt and pay it off quickly, a masters degree is just another way for universities to scam you out of your money. Unless your parents are rich. Then who cares.

I’m currently in a master’s program, and it does not cost at all what the video suggests. It is around $6k annually. The tuition plus fees per semester is about $2.7k, rounding it up to $3k we have a liberal estimate of $6k annually, still ~$3k lower than the estimate the video provided ($8.9k). This program is only a 2 year program, so in the end it will cost about $10.8k. I do not live on campus and because of the pandemic my work and school are both online. I do not wish to dox myself, however the school I attend is a California State University (public school) and I am not even using any financial aid or scholarships. I am very lucky to have both my work and school be online, however I do not believe to be the only one who has this arrangement. With that said it really can be affordable, most employers will pay for your post graduate education (provided that you will continue to work for them for some set amount of time) in some sort of tuition reimbursement. This would mean you would have to upfront the initial cost, and if your grades are decent enough then they will reimburse you. Not to mention as well, but any scholastic expenses can be written off on your tax forms, and increase your tax return, money that can go back to your education (or anywhere else really). The caveat is that work and school can be incredibly exhausting, even if they are both online. Your grades will have to be higher as C’s are failing, so you must maintain at least a B- in all your classes, which is easier said than done. However, I truly believe the return on investment is the right decision if you think that this will advance your career. For myself, my BSc was in chemical engineering, and I am earning a MSc in mechanical engineering. With this degree, the required time of experience most employers expect decreases significantly, meaning that the barrier of entry to most jobs is much lower. Furthermore, as the video stated, the rate of pay increases significantly. With a BSc and 3 years of work experience, I am currently making $35/hour or $72.8k annually. With a MSc in engineering, one can expect earnings to be around $100k on the low end to even $200k depending on the job/experience. Ultimately, I would encourage anyone to pursue higher education but only on two conditions: 1. You are able to afford this without requiring (potentially additional) student loans 2. You have actual evidence that this will increase your net earnings and provide a good return on investment. If you do not fulfil either of these requirements, then I suggest reconsidering this pursuit.

At least for a thesis/research based masters, potential advisors should be very transparent about how much money they have to fund you, if TA or GA ships are available, and if you will get a tuition waiver. Most programs also have financial and merit based scholarships purely for graduate students. Don’t go into a program that you haven’t thoroughly investigated to figure out how you will fund yourself- it’s hard work yes but its possible to avoid huge debt.

@@princesninah I think you’re referring to PhD programs. Those are usually paid for. I’m looking to do a masters myself and most programs I’m looking into are crazy expensive, The exception being state universities. From what I’ve seen, most state universities offer tuition wavers for TA/GA positions, however you still have to pay for the thousands of dollars of fees and books, etc. This means you’ll often still end up with at ten grand of debt. That’s better but still a lot in comparison to universities abroad. Some state schools only offer partial waivers tho and the private schools I’ve looked at (including those with giant endowments *cough* UPenn *cough*) sometimes offer no financial support at all for tuition cost upwards of 40,000 per year. I guess it might also depend on what kind of Masters you’re looking at but honestly it’s still a huge financial risk. Particularly if you still have debt from undergrad like me. Also what if you can’t do a TA/GA position for some reason or you don’t get one. Then you’re stuck with so much extra debt. Despite all of this, I’m still going to apply for a Masters for 2022 (if the world hasn’t ended by then) but I’m doing a ton of research and making a financial and job plan now to doubly make sure that it’ll pay off in the end. Also I’m a privileged middle class white dude that has parents that could financially support me, so I have time for the research, and could be supported financially while I study.

Master’s tuition is usually free at public accredited universities in Germany and Norway, even for US students - including for online programs. And the fees are relatively modest in other European countries (usually lower than $800 for the total program cost). Several of my Class of 2020 peers and I are looking at programs in Europe for the affordability, but also to get international experience and potentially work abroad afterwards. Unless I had the chance to study at a top-tier school in the US (with a high return on investment), the costs simply aren’t justified for me. I didn’t think I would go for a Master’s until 2-3 years after graduation but most entry-level jobs in big cities require a master’s degree these days in order to be taken seriously.

A degree to help someone "gain direction". At the Masters level you had better already HAVE direction. Masters are meant as specialization degrees, not as generalist degrees. You want a generalist degree in a discipline, get a Bachelors. You want a specialization degree, Masters. Terminal/Business degree? That's an MBA. Research degree? PhD. But getting a degree to help you figure out what you want to do...that is completely stupid and a waste and the same people who typically do that turn around and cry because they have X degree in a subject that doesn't make any money and wonder why they don't have a job. I worked at Target once with a bright girl who had a 3.7 GPA in her Bachelors in Archeology...what could she do with it? Well, she was on year 3 at Target in an hourly position because there are absolutely no jobs for Archeology majors unless you go overseas and have a minimum of a Masters AND be en-route to a PhD.

Jesus thats brutal that girls dreams got crushed... reminds me of my ex, she had a bachelors in History and 2 associates degrees for knowing korean and farsi (she also knew spanish and english) and she was actually completely fluent in all 4 languages (it wasnt like half baked broken knowledge). This girl was working as a dental assistant because she could only get a job in a museum as a curator and even that was hard to come by and very low paying (hourly). So sad.

As a non-American, it is really hard for me to understand why someone chooses to go 100k in debt for a degree he may not use it after all! He probably didn't even join the workforce to know how hard it'd be to pay this debt for something that could be useless. I'd expect for someone who has already a degree to be smarter!

I already have a software engineering degree but I did want to explore more of the business aspect of user research . I’m also gonna be doing my thesis at a lab that specializes in data collection of user data and the lab partners with company sponsors that students can write their thesis in so this degree will also make me develop further technical skills in data research.

If you're paying tons for a master's degree, you're doing it WRONG. I got my Msc in a specialized computational field at a great public university. I worked hard and got a research assistantship that covered the tuition of 2/3 of the semesters and also got paid a $1,000/month stipend that mostly paid me back for the first semester that I paid out of pocket for. My total out of pocket cost was $3,000 and I got a job right out of graduation making $80k/year.

Georgia Tech's Online Masters programs are nothing like the video shows. It's high quality, makes use of multiple LMS platforms and has significant amounts of collaboration built-in. As a USC grad and current Georgia Tech M.S. student, I feel the quality is equal and I've had the privilege of learning from professors in the tech industry such as Sebastian Thrun (Waymo @ Google) and Ayana Howard (NASA robotics).

That's an idealized view of the college experience. Maybe that's real in some places. But once you're over 30, have both job and life experience and you're trying to get that education merit raise or promotion, the last thing you want to do is spend hours on a campus dealing with a bunch of kids who barely care and spending weeks at a time listening to theory about things you've already done for real. Btw, online classes do have interaction with other classmates. Some schools have both message boards and video class setups. The no-interaction thing is an antiquated concern.

Depends on the program and why you think you’ll need one for the future. If you’re looking for more money within your career, you’re more likely to get a bigger base salary if you churn jobs every 2-3 years, rather than hope for a 10% raise at that same company.

Actually, the online learning model is more efficient and flexible compared with the traditional way, for example, once I wake up, I can open my compmuter to start the lecture without catching the bus to the campus, and you also have high quality recording, which you can revise again and again if you don't catch the points in class or you miss the lecture, This means that you can arrange your time more flexibly. I usually revise the coure content after I have reviewed the lecture note in details, it is very helpful. So in terms of learning knowledge itself, there is nothing wrong even better, But in terms of social life and meeting the leactuers and students, this is really bad. For a master course, you even don't have any chance to meet your cohort only by watching their names on the virtual meetings. And you don't have too many friends to talk with if your master unversity is at a new country. That is very suffering.

The big question is if a masters degree in general is a returned investment in your particular field of study. More and more fields don’t “need” a degree to be successful. Also there is a higher demand for trade jobs and skilled laborers. Then look into how you learn as a student. If you thrive on a online platform go for an online program. If you absolutely need the physical learning environment, maybe wait it out until you can get to a physical class. It’s not a one size fits all answer.

Get your employers to foot the bill if they really want you to have a masters degree. They’re the ones who want you to have it. Definitely don’t go into debt for a degree that won’t guarantee you a job anymore than a bachelor would.
