COSC bad rep? TESU shooting self in foot?

[cookderosa]

I don't really think you can go wrong choosing TESU. It's possible you might pay a little less at one of the others, but that depends on many factors. I can easily see someone choosing them for the name, program accreditation, and ease of planning on this board.

So Dave, you think TESU is worth the extra cost for the better name and avoiding needless headaches?

I meant what I said. The value proposition depends on your finances. For me personally, the most important factors are:

A) Getting started
B) Finishing

Cost is much farther down the list. However, if your finances are tight, then the cheapest choice may well be the ONLY choice. As was mentioned above, a degree from any of these schools is going to be MUCH cheaper and faster than other routes. The most important choice is the one to get started.

This.
I can count on 1 hand the number of times anyone here has ever posted that they regretted finishing their RA degree at one of the big 3.
