    I'm interested to get any first hand information from past or current students about this program. I would enter this program with a BSc (IT Security) an MBA and MSIA degrees. I've been involved in InfoSec for over 15 years and have a laundry list of the usual certifications. Academically, I don't anticipate any problems. My questions are about the quality of the program and the recognition of the degree.

    Non-students (current or past) are welcome to reply as well, but I'd value the input of those with first hand information the most.

    Thanks!!

    I have no experience with the school or program; however, the program looks solid with NSA and regional accreditation. There is no wrong going with RA degree, and it has small campus in Laurel, Maryland. The only problem I see is name recognition, many people around the Washington DC metropolitan area do not know the school exists (only 15 miles away from Washington DC). I encountered with several hiring managers in this area, they thought Capital University in Columbus, Ohio.

    I'm interested in this program as well. I asked one of my professors at CSU San Bernardino, whom runs our Information Assurance program about Capital College and he says it is a solid program. They also offer a DoD scholarship that covers your tuition and provides a stipend so long as you work for the DoD afterwards. The program, itself, is still in its infancy stages so it will be hard to grasp how well it is designed until the first cohort completes the program.
