Masters Degree direction needed.
#1
The good news is that I'll be taking what I hope to be my final exam in two days and completing my BSLS from Excelsior. While I'm elated to finish, I'm confused about my next move. The education monkey is on my back and I can't shake it loose.

I want to complete a Masters in Criminal Justice. Unfortunately my bank is dry and I need to do this has inexpensively as possible. Andrew Jackson looked like the ticket but unfortunately its an NA school and that won't meet my needs.

Can anyone direct me to an inexpensive RA Masters program? I hate to search for schools by cost but I have little choice. Money is the issue and will determine if I continue on or call it a day.

Thank you.

WMNU has an online Master of Interdisciplinary Studies that includes a Criminal Justice option.

If you take 6 credits per semester you pay the in state rate of around $160 credit

Virtual Campus - Online Programs

Another option is a MPA from Valdosta State...online MPA pays in state rate of around $150 per credit hour

Fort Hays State University, MLS with a concentration in Criminal Justice: Fort Hays State University - Graduate Students

But I also like WNMU, I have been considering it for myself, so I second that suggestion.

Good luck!
