I found that the University of the Cumberlands offers a 31-credit degree. I wondered if anyone has any experience with the University of the Cumberlands. Does the school require you to incorporate religious text into your work, like Liberty University? I read before that they don't. I am also curious to know the average workload for a graduate-level course (how long papers are and if there is a lot of reading, exams, and quizzes) for any courses anyone has taken in the past. Also, has anyone ever taken a comprehensive exam with the University of the Cumberlands? What are they like? I am curious. Lastly, I have some graduate-level project management credits from over 10 years ago. Does anyone know if the University of the Cumberlands accepts old graduate credits?
I am attracted to the University of the Cumberlands because they offer 7 week online courses, which I can complete fast if transfer credits are accepted.
I graduated from the University of the Cumberlands in 2021 with my Master's in Information Systems Security.
1. They do not require you to incorporate religious text into your work.
2. In the program I was in we had weekly readings, weekly discussions, quizzes, mid-term exams, simulated lab exercises, final exams, a few group projects, and the occasional paper. Papers weren't bad they require APA format, and different classes require different paper lengths.
3. The capstone project was actually pretty fun I had to design and secure a network using all of the knowledge I gained from the classes in the program.
Overall, I had a fantastic experience and would recommend it. The tuition can't be beat, and the teachers are knowledgeable and responsive. They are constantly adding new programs and the campus is very pretty.
