Hello, I am new to this forum. But, I have recently been seriously considering starting a distance learning PhD program in Education. I have looked at a series of brick and mortar schools, including New Mexico State University, Pepperdine, and University of Nebraska. All have well known programs and certainly the tuition at NMSU and U of N is reasonable.
However, someone at my work is pursuing his program at Capella and really played it up recently. I did some research on it, but am unsure what to make of it...everything from warnings about attending a proprietary university to those who claim it is wonderful. Certainly the person at my work keeps bragging about the program. But, truthfully, I am also a little concerned about any program that would enroll him.
Any feedback from you guys and gals would be greatly appreciated.
