Hey ya'll....I haven't been on here in awhile. I have been struggling to find a decent paying job still and am thinking of going back to school. I have a BA and AA from TESC and AS from Excelsior-all liberal arts/general studies degrees. I am also a cert. medical asst., cert. ekg tech and cert. nures aide. So, I am thinking I need something to bring what I already have together. I am looking at a masters in healthcare admin. and there's a great program here in SC at MUSC but it's 2 years and expensive. My friend has 1 from there and told me jobs are almost non-existent w MHA. I don't have a lot of $ or time at this point. So, do you think a masters certificate in healthcare admin. might be the way to go? There are 2 I am looking at....1 from Seton Hall....pretty pricey but credits can be used to finish masters. Other 1 is through UGA....only $1800 but ceu's. Again, I live in SC so UGA is definitely better known here. I've been really having a hard time financially and need to work sooner rather than later. Any ideas or suggestions?????
