Hey guys, I see many of you have multiple graduate degrees. May I please ask how you managed to afford financing your grad degrees? Thanks
My Degrees Were Free My degrees were free. I had a scholarship to Michigan State University (based on my SAT scores). My employer paid for my other degrees through tuition reimbursement.
There are some that aren't as expensive compared to the national average. I'm currently funding my own MBA at the moment and I shopped around on the internet and asked questions and looked at questions others asked. I finally settled on a university I think fit me best at a decent cost. AMU/APU, Amberton, WIU, and others aren't too bad on tuition. The three I mentioned are all RA as well. Look around and you may be able to find cheaper. If you don't mine NA universities I know of a couple that are cheaper like UoPeople and Nations U.
1st grad degree: 2k, total out-of-pocket cost 75% employer tuition reimbursement RA non-profit (public uni) 2nd grad degree: 11k, total out-of-pocket cost doctorate: scholarships and employer tuition reimbursement RA for-profit 3rd grad degree: 7k, total out-of-pocket cost paid full price, but transfer credits kept aggregate cost low RA for-profit 4th grad degree: 66% off (in-progress) scholarships and tuition reimbursement RA non-profit (but it's extremely expensive because it's a "private" university)
