BSB/HR Grad. MASTERS?

[Whenyousee20]

Hi guys!! I conquered the Precalculus course on SL and boy was it hectic. I am scheduled to graduate on September 28,2019 with my Bachelors of Science in Business with Human Resource Management Certificate from UoP.

Any suggestions on grad school? If so, what program? A program that's low in cost and I could complete swiftly. )

Im the first to do it inside of my family, so college is quite new to me. You all are extremely helpful.

What do you want to do career wise? A graduate degree really fine tunes a speciality for the most part. If you do a Masters in Human Resources but you really want to work in Finance, you would not do yourself any good. I would recommend thinking about what your career goal is and pick a program based on your career goals.

I'd recommend WGU, it's going to be the cheapest option if you can finish in 1-2 terms.

Also, they will accept a NA degree to get into their masters programs.

What's NA exactly??

[quigongene]

Nationally Accredited (as opposed to regionally accredited). Most schools' masters programs will want a RA bachelors (unless they are NA themselves).

UoP is NA.

RA is usually preferable.

Hmm, interesting indeed, I am guessing at this, but I think the OP finished at the UOP, the For-Profit entity known as University of Phoenix, not the University of the People. So technically, the Bachelors is Regionally Accredited and not Nationally Accredited in the case of U of the People.

My recommendation is also WGU, unless you want to go for a slightly more well known brand name, then go for Purdue Global MBA ExcelTrack, and as a third/final option, I'll throw in the Walden MBA as they have a couple of specializations, such as Project Management.

I think in this case the OP is using 'UoP' for University of Phoenix (RA), not University of the People (NA) - but I could be wrong and then your're 100% correct

Whoops....if it is Phoenix, never mind what I said about NA, OP (altho knowing the difference could still come in handy).

I'm kind of amused that you got a BA at a very expensive school, but then are looking to save money on the MA. I personally would say spend very little on a BA, then splurge a little on the MA if you have the extra cash...
