It is also slower than UMPI or WGU as you're on a term schedule with weekly deadlines. You aren't moving at your own pace which many of us are pretty good at doing. If you're on the western side of the country this may be a better option than UMPI for the name recognition. On the eastern side of the country UMPI may be better for the name. The name also says it's a state university which SUU's name doesn't imply which is kind of unusual.
Plenty of Compass Point, State Name, University schools out there. Georgia Southern, Texas Southern, South Alabama, Eastern Michigan, Western Carolina, Eastern Washington, Central Oklahoma… except for SNHU I’d wager almost all of them with this name format are state schools even without the word “state” in the name.
And like I said location matters. Regionally names can make a difference in hiring. I know people who weren't hired because of basketball wars between their schools which is ridiculous. Weird things like this happen.
