Metropolia Transition to Bachelor of Engineering in Information Technology

[davewill]

Overall, it seems a pretty good way to get a degree almost for free (if you live in EU), but if you graduate without a GPA, I don't know how much useful and recognised this would be when it comes to apply for jobs or intern position (especially if you don't have any previous working experience in IT, which is my case).

WGU does something similar where all your courses are pass/fail. They claim that a pass is equivalent to a "B" grade, and it doesn't seem to hurt too many students here. Also, most of the degree paths we talk about here involve alternative credit that does not carry a grade, and people often graduate with only a handful of graded courses, sometimes only 1 or 2. Grad schools and employers are not fooled by such, and again, it doesn't seem to cause problems.
