Fresh Ashworth Experience? - High_Order1 - 02-20-2018
Hi!
Toying with the idea of a graduate degree.
I got in such a rhythm blasting out the bachelors; I'm having trouble stepping away from the keyboard. (shrugs) I don't have any savings left to apply towards a masters, I AM NOT INTERESTED GOING INTO DEBT FOR A GRADUATE DEGREE, and my current jobs don't have any kind of tuition assistance.
Henley - Putnam https://www.henley-putnam.edu/programs/masters-strategic-security-protection-management/
has a degree with some incredibly interesting-sounding classes; but no way can I afford that.
So, as much as it pains me, a CJ masters at ashworth sounds promising. (Not the Ashworth part, the CJ masters)
Doing some due diligence now; anybody here have recent experience with the school? Bonus points for graduate studies there...
So far I have read they are short on customer support, and books hold up several, but I am not trying for a compressed schedule for this degree. (now, I need to make some money and refill the coffers!)
Thanks!

I have only done undergrad work with them, but the coursework is very self paced and I usually finish their undergrad courses within about a week. I have called the school to see how much work graduate studies are but nobody seems to be able to give me a straight answer. I have been told that it was more writing intensive but they couldn't tell me how many pages each writing assignment is. I have had teachers that were very critical of my writing I have it others that have little response or feedback on my work. If it is anything like their undergrad work and It should be very doable.
