Which Masters Course Should I Take?
I need some good ADVICE. I have been living overseas and have been doing a Masters in Education ONLINE at Seton Hall (so it is accredited, part of the brick and mortar school). I didnt want to waste time, and that is why I did it. I completed one year of the 2 year program. Bcs I knew I was coming back to live in the U.S., I decided to apply to a local University to complete the Masters in person at the University. They “assured” me I would be able to transfer ALL the credits and finish the Masters in one year. Because of this, I took a leave of absence from the other program.
NOW, I get back to the U.S. and spoke with my advisor at the University local, and she told me that there was a problem and that all my credits will NOT transfer, and that I have to begin the Masters from scratch and do everythign over again (I can only transfer 2 courses). Because I took a semester off at the other one (I didnt want to pay for classes that I would have to take again), if I go back to take ONLINE, I will not be able to start classes again (it is a cohort program, in which we take classes at the same pace) until August 2010, and finish in Spring 2012, the same as the local University.
So, basically my choices are to start the Masters from scratch at the local University adn start in January 2010 and finish in Spring 2012, or wait until the fall 2010, and continue online, but only have one year of classes to complete. (and not have to repeat all the classes again) I know it is “better” to do it in person, but for this degree, I dont feel it really matters in terms of connections, because I will be taking the internship here in the U.S.
I am so confused, what should I do?? Would you take the entire program over again just to do it in the classroom? or wait until the fall and finish online and only have one year left. Either way, I will finish both programs in Spring 2012….what do you think I should do??

Change your major because the educational field is not as lucrative as it used to be. This could be a door closing and so it is time to look at another door.
Interesting problem, not to mention answer from the other poster (uh… when exactly was teaching lucrative?).
I think you should consider other options. There are many online universities for a masters in education besides the one you applied with. Indeed, most MAEs can be completed online in one year anyway. I recommend checking out Walden, Athabascu (sp?), Kaplan, etc. Find out which one will accept *all of your units and get you started in January*. If you get them to compete with each other I’m sure you will find one to your liking, and have your Masters by June.
