Doctorate in Higher Education Leadership/Administration

Carson-Newman University offer Ed.D online, I assume the price tag is cheap. I do not see the tuition for Doctorate, but Master level is relatively cheap.

A quick perusal of the EdD sticky yields the following results: the University of Alabama, Benedictine University, Capella University, Clemson University, Fielding Graduate University, the University of Florida, George Fox University, Indiana State University, Jones International University, Missisippi State University, the University of Nebraska, Northcentral University, the University of North Dakota, Northeastern University, Nova Southeastern University, Old Dominion University, Oral Roberts University, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Phoenix, Regent University, the University of Saint Augustine for Health Sciences, Trident University International, the Union Institute & University, and Walden University.

 

Seems like professional suicide to me.

 

I was very confused at why someone who finished a PhD in Leadership at the University of the Cumberlands 3 years ago would now be looking for an EdD in Higher Education Administration. I see that this is a 5 year old post. Glad they found a school that fit with them. I don't think you can go wrong with a $21,000 EdD. Current prices are only slightly more expensive, at $24K. But again, no federal financial aid. (https://www.ace.edu/program/doctor-of-education-in-leadership)

If I wanted an EdD and not a PhD (and in education rather than another field) that would be a good option.

 

Funny that this thread was necromanced. Although, I suppose I could argue that I'm doing the same thing... But yes, I ended up going with UC (Thanks, Steve!) and finishing back in 2017. Still paying the loans, though... hahaha
