  1. Is a Master’s Degree worth anything? OF COURSE!!!! For some occupations, attaining a master's degree is the most worthwhile way to earn a comfortable salary. It's typically beneficial to students who have clearly defined career goals, or people who are already working in their fields of choice, but wish to advance further and gain additional responsibility by mastering their disciplines. If done right, a master's degree can accumulate quite a return. According to the US Census Bureau, a master's is worth $1.3 million more on average than just a high school diploma. In their lifetimes, high school graduates make $1.2 million, bachelor's degree holders make $2.1 million and master's degree holders make $2.5 million – that's more than double high school graduates and $400,000 more than those who have bachelor's degrees. On a yearly basis, those with master's degrees earn around $10,000 more than those with bachelor's degrees. Check out www.mastersdegree.net for more information regarding this matter. This is only on the financial aspect though. We all know there is more to a master’s degree than money, right? But nonetheless, would you settle for an income that's “just enough?” Yet again, we all know getting a master’s is heavy on the pocket. We know there are online master’s degrees but doubted if they're worth it. Fortunately, they're getting credited nowadays. The government provides a list of agencies it recognizes: the National Center for Education Statistics' College Navigator has a database that's useful to consult when searching for a quality master's degree program.
  2. I think you may contact the school to ask for further details. That would be your hint and your gateway to improve and be ready for your next application to other universities. Best luck!
  3. I agree with Juilletmercredi cskvchang! Why don't you try it first? You'll never know 'til you get there. That's the time that you have to decide then. Best luck!
