ETAMU vs UMPI (specifically CBE vs YourPace programs)
#1
I've poked around and only seen one unsubstantiated post about YourPace being terribly formatted/layout, while TAMU had a much better layout and UI. Is this accurate? Any insight? 

For various reasons, I'm limiting myself to state universities, so I think these are the only CBE type degrees, and that's why I'm only comparing these two. Wondering if one or the other is much more clunky to work through. Thanks!

They both use the same platform to present their courses: D2L. So anything “clunky to work through” is either old or course specific.

What you choose will likely come down to what type of degree you want. What your budget is, where you live and if you care about speed

Sadly, I live in an unaffiliated state, so while $200 is not nothing, it's $2000 for ETAMU vs $1800 for UMPI which, at that level, isn't what I want to be a deciding factor. 

That the platforms are the exact same is precisely why I asked here, so thanks. Hilarious and informative. 

Basically, degree itself will be the real deciding measure, then. I'm still working on courses and local CC associate's for that aspect.

Just wondering if you reviewed your previous posts/thread, you were leaning towards TESU and UMPI. You're missing out on a few other CBE options such as UMASS Global, PUG, etc https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Co...d_Programs

I did, and PUG is the one I missed/forgot (based on price/personal preference, though lower on the list than ETAMU/UMPI) so thank you! My current career/future plans have a very narrow intersection degree-wise, so while I may seem arbitrary I just have specific ideals in mind with what I'm picking. Much appreciate all the input from the board.

Do you get military discounts? If you do, TESU is your best bet as per my post in your previous thread. Check with your employer/workplace and see if you have tuition assistance or reimbursement. Mine doesn't as I am pretty much a consultant or contractor without benefits. If you do get these perks, I suggest you review this thread: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...r-Business
