How Long Does It Take to Earn a Master’s Degree Online?

For those who don’t have the time to sit in a traditional classroom, online learning provides an opportunity that would not otherwise be possible. This is a major reason why master’s degrees are extremely popular in the online format. Since the master’s degree is such a high-level degree, many students seeking the credential already have well-established careers and full-time jobs, yet are seeking ways to continue their professional advancement. And many master’s degree students already have children and other family responsibilities that preclude spending all day on a college campus. Recognizing the need to help those individuals with work and family responsibilities earn the higher education degree they need; many colleges and universities offer several online master’s degree programs. We’ll take a look at what prospective master’s degree students can expect from an online degree program and provide a bit of advice in choosing the right program for their unique needs.

The Best Online Associate Degree Programs for 2018

Online associate degrees offer a fantastic way to get a college degree quickly and affordably. In fact, earning an associate degree online in the typical two years or less means a student can enter the workforce faster. These degrees can serve as stepping stones to a bachelor’s degree by allowing students to take a wealth of general education courses that create a firm foundation for further instruction. Because they can be obtained online, and can be cheaper than pursuing a bachelor’s degree out of high school, it’s easy to see why associate degrees are growing in popularity.

In that case, the cost of attendance may play a more important role. The following guide break...

Top Online MBA Programs: No GMAT Required

First administered in 1954, the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) is the primary exam used by many MBA programs to assess an applicant’s likelihood of succeeding in graduate school. The test has four main sections that measure a student’s reasoning, math, verbal, and analytical writing skills, and students who do well on the GMAT often do well in business school. While the GMAT remains popular with many programs for this reason, it is not always appreciated by students who sometimes find it burdensome in terms of both cost and time commitment. This may be why the number of students taking the GMAT is in decline.  According to Prep Advisor , at least 40,000 fewer students took the GMAT in the 2014 testing year compared to 2012. Today, many schools are changing their GMAT requirement or getting rid of it altogether. Why Are Schools Waiving or not Requiring the GMAT? While the GMAT adeptly assesses a student’s basic skills and predicts success in graduate study, it doe...
