How important is it to look for a "joint" degree program for obtaining two masters degrees? Im very interested in obtaining two masters degrees, one in International Affairs and another in Urban Planning. The 1 school that has a joint degree for these is Columbia in NYC. It might be a little more $$$ than I can afford. There are 5 other schools that are highly regarded in both; Tufts, Harvard, Rutgers, Oregon, and Washington. None of those I would consider "comfort" choices, such as being close to home (Cal Poly SLO) or a city I would love to live in (Texas-Austin). So Im having trouble deciding on where all to apply. Any advice?

Whats the difference in the different types of degrees? Masters, Bachelor's, etc? I am wanting to start college after I graduate, and had a question about degrees. Whats the difference between Masters, and Bachelor's, etc? I am guessing Masters is something that you "Master" or study the most? I am wanting to go for several different things, and I was also wondering what is the best thing to do, is there certain classes that I should take no matter, or should I go just for what I had planned on? I am wanting to go for A+ Certification, maybe some networking, web design, graphic arts, and automotive design. Is there is a list somewhere out there telling what kind of jobs you can land with these degrees, how they pay, or a list of classes that there is availible to take? I'm not looking to get rich, just make enough money to be comfortable, and have a decent house and car, and take care of my family when I get married. I've got about 4/5 years before I get married, so while I've got time I'd like to get a good start in life. Thanks!

I have 2 masters degrees, where do I start in journalism? I've written 2 dissertations, I've written for academic publications, I have degrees from 3 countries (2 in Europe, 1 in US... all known universities), and I've lived all over, working on humanitarian issues, even interning with UNDP... my degrees are in international development (human rights, environmental studies, etc). I don't want to write for a small paper on local issues as my experience and interests lie elsewhere, mainly in southeast asia. As such, I would like to work as a freelance or correspondent on political and development issues. Since I just finished graduate school recently, what should I do? I am also willing to work in high risk situations. I lived in 2 countries where coups happened. I generally think my CV makes me qualified for a lot and I can write well, but without working previously as a journalist, what do I do?

Why are MBA tuition costs so much higher than other Masters degrees? When viewing the Berkeley, UCSD, and UCLA websites, it becomes obvious that the fees associated with acquiring an MBA are substantially higher than other majors (but not all). Why is this? For example, the Berkeley iSchool fees approach 10k flat, while the MBA is about 30k (32k @ UCLA). I was just curious about this gap and why it was about 3x as much across the board.

May I have some recommendations for good quality life experience masters degrees that come with transcripts? I realize the down-side to a life experience degree, but I find myself in need of an advanced degree for a job I am already doing in a foreign country (and have been doing for several years)...and I am completely unwilling to spend the money or effort on a traditional type of program. I need something within a few months. The diploma itself needs to look good. I need transcripts and the ability to have diploma and transcripts verified at least by mail (a fee would be expected). I would like to find a company/school that didn't blatantly advertise life experience degrees and had, as close as possible, the appearance of a traditional distance learning university or a brick and mortar school. In other words, I want it to be as close to a traditional degree as possible. I am more concerned with quality than expense. Thank you very much to anyone who offers an opinion...especially if you have personal experience with the company/school you recommend.
Are online masters degrees worth it? I am about to graduate with a BS in Engineering Management, Information Systems and a BS in Mathematics. I am really interested in entrepreneurship and want to eventually go to graduate school. However, considering this day and age, I'd really like to customize my schedule and possibly take online classes to complete an online masters degree, but I'm not sure if its worth it. I am afraid that it will be looked down upon by future employers. Is this true? Help!
will earning 2 masters degrees make me more valuable for a career in student affairs/higher education? I am completing a masters in post secondary education now but i didnt have any graduate assistanships or internships because it was distance learning. I feel that I should go back and earn a second degree in student affairs counceling to be able to secure a entry level higher education job after graduation. The second degree includes two internships and a graduate assistanship. Also I could become certified as a councelor, which is something my first masters doesnt offer. What do you think, does it really matter about the graduate experience or will my related experiences in undergrad plus my first masters be enough to secure an entry level job in student affairs?
