How many people have degrees in social entrepreneurship? I bet, if you looked at the LinkedIn profiles of individuals in this field, you won't see many with this degree or concentration. 

I haven't been able to enroll in any of the courses yet. I already know I'm going to hate the format. I'm sick of writing long papers. Thankfully, science programs don't require a bunch of long papers, so I've been happy at UF.

Thanks for addressing the email earlier!

I just ran some quick numbers on LinkedIn, and I am sure I missed some options, but depending on how you want to count here is what I found using a boolean search:

• “MS social entrepreneurship" - 39
  
• "Masters of Science, social entrepreneurship" - 17
  
• "MA social entrepreneurship" - 121
  
• "Master of Arts, social entrepreneurship" - 27
  
• "MBA, social entrepreneurship" - 146
  
• "Master of Business Administration, social entrepreneurship” - 581
  
• "Masters of Business Administration, social entrepreneurship" - 1
  
• "MS Social Enterprise" - 6
  
• "Masters of Science Social Enterprise" - 2
  
• "MA Social Enterprise" - 33
  
• "Masters of Arts Social Enterprise" - 2
  
• "MA Social Innovation" - 45
  
• "Master of Arts Social Innovation" - 21
  
• "Masters of Science Social Innovation" - 2
  
• "MSC Innovation and Entrepreneurship" - 741
  

I just received my Walden email / portal information.  They are using the Microsoft cloud platform (Office 365 is free for college students, so the cloud is included).  I've only spent a few minutes logged in but the Student Portal interface is well laid out, even giving you a tutorial option the first time you login.  

Thanks for elaborating on the email situation, knowing we'll have cloud included is a big relief for me!

By the way, for anyone else who is following and wondering about a dual concentration AFTER completing the first concentration totally including the capstone course (and probably after graduating)... I noticed last night that alumni receive 25% of tuition for the second degree (in April '17 it was 15% & in Dec '16 it was 30% per WayBackMachine). So if Walden keeps that offer in 2019/2020 then for me with the social entrepreneurship degree if I only need 3 additional courses (after graduating with the first degree) then the cost would be dropped from $8,795 to $6,596.25.


Has anyone looked to see how many written papers are being required?
