Is it possible to 'hide' a degree?
#32
The Big 3 are NOT going against the tidal wave. They were never in that sea from the start. They were founded 50 years ago to not to have a capstone and to let adults transfer in 100%. They were not meant to be California like at all. They were founded to be different and not join the Jones! They are starting to progressively get away from their history and concept.

I am not saying they are not a great deal. They are still a great deal! I 100% love all 3.

I am just being intellectually honest that they are not as progressive as they were.

I think that they did this because at other schools (most of our UC and CSU system schools here in CA are this way), you now have to take a capstone course. ALL schools are starting to do this. The Big 3 cannot go completely against the tidal wave of there other 9 million college in the US, or else it would be obvious that their degrees weren't up to snuff. So, they've decided, one by one, to go the way of the crowd. It is STILL cheaper and faster than any other college except the competency-based models. They still accept 97.5% of a degree being transferred in - look for another school that will do that. You can still get a bachelor's degree for less than $7500 starting from scratch (and even less if you can utilize Study.com scholarships, affiliate memberships, SL coupons, and take multiple courses from Study.com and SL in a month). This is just crazy cheap! It's almost the same price as our CSU-system schools here in CA were 29 years ago (I paid about $1500/yr at SJSU). It's roughly the cost of a single year there now.

I'm certainly not complaining, even if it's not perfect.
