I got the verification today, just now. I intend to update this thread with all my thoughts once I obtain the physical credential. It's been a long journey. I started off at Patten, then got transferred to JFKU, then chose Bottega and it was the right choice for me. They pretty much used the same system (as the other universities) but with different assignments. I'm just happy to have my first master's degree! Woo woo!

I promise to do a super immersive post, but yes, I do recommend them. My professors really cared about my success and the cost of 1500 per 4 month term was reasonable. It's NA accredited, but hey a masters degree is a masters degree and to me it doesn't make a massive difference. I just wanted to make sure it was accredited by a recognized body. I lost my job suddenly during my tenure there and they really worked with me to make sure I met the graduation requirements and had adequate time to complete everything. They accepted all of my prior credits from JFKU and Patten.

Congrats! As long as the degree fits your goals and it's accredited, that's the main draw towards the degree! Great work! Woo hoo! Nostalgia... I remember those school names... JFKU no longer exist as they've merged into their parent company National University Systems.
