Also, I don't see any student reports that completing a master's there would be any faster than at WGU.
WGU costs under $4000 when factoring in a scholarship. WGU has no ranking, but people have gotten jobs at Fortune 500 companies such as Microsoft.
Will a high-ranking master's help? Maybe, it's hard to say.

Doctors have 300k+ in loans and often never pay them back. There's several news reports of people who bankrupted on that much.
That university also has no ranking and limited degree options. Someone may never get a job with it.
I wouldn't suggest people take on more student loan debt than is nessecarry.
If you default on your student loans, that will affect your credit score, which means higher interest rates you will pay for loans.
You can try to run and hide but at some point, they will take your money.
The government can garnish wages, take your tax refund and garnish social security payments.
As for ranking. I think once you get into the many thousands in world rank like eastern university, Fort Hays , HAU, TAMCC , as the examples given above. it’s prolly Dick or Dan. Unless you live near one of them.
