Yup. And there is zero edge to graduating from the Extgetion School - because that is what any paperwork states. Zero edge.

Yeah, but then your diploma says "School of Continuing Studies" on it.

Future employers don't ask to see the diploma. The resume will say Georgetown.

WRONG.

All employers aI know of, including myself, verify the information - if the kid wants the job, that is!

Yup - because so many grad and undergrad complained about no discount during covid - so they decided to offer a discount - except you are given well....that much less.

True, but everyone will just put "Georgetown" on their resume, so.....good for jobs, bad for grad school I guess

Except all employers I know of, Fed or not, are required to verify - and it will be documented both "online" and 'School of Continuing Studies" - one is not great, two are well, really not great.

I completely disagree. The money grab is offering tons of classes without actual degrees (which so many schools do at the BA level).
The pricing is also reasonable. This looks like the opposite of a money grab.

Another money grab scam LOL

As someone desperately seeking to hire talent for a growing digital business, I'd PREFER a stellar online degree. Those grads will hit the ground, or Zoom call, running.

We already recruit from online programs. But we need more degree holders! Like, yesterday.

A GU online degree with solid skills is a plus for those ready to work in the real world sooner rather than later.

Parents shouldn't use our own bias and old school thinking if we want to recession-proof our kids

The thread title seems like an ad for an online dating site featuring Georgetown graduates.
