New FlexPath Doctorates from Capella

[ashkir]

I am not sticking up for the university, but I earned my doctorate from Capella and have had no issues landing positions, including adjunct ones, a full time associate professorship, and my current position as a VP at a large state supported university. Several of my colleagues also have doctorates from Capella or Walden, or a few from University of Phoenix. One who has a PhD in Business from Capella became dean of the business school at a private liberal arts university, while one who has a Doctorate in IT from Walden is now a regional CIO for a very large bank in the northeast. Rep is one thing, how you market yourself and your credentials is another.

How much writing was involved in your doctorate? I'm potentially reviewing going onto another program.

Being that it's a Doctorate it's expected that there will be lots of writing, especially when it's a major that doesn't require much if any hands-on practicums.

I'm aware of that. I'm trying to judge the overall content. 

Like am I going to be writing 75 pages essays 3 nights a week? Am I going to be writing 20 page essays 2 nights a week? Is it a 200 page essay due every month? etc. I'm trying to get a heavy of exactly how heavy the writing is.
