Great into post/thread to get the ball rolling, but it's missing many important pieces of information from the addendum and template here, such as your budget, commitments, dedicated time to study, study habits, etc: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...Area-works

These various variables actually are important in making a decision on which degree and institution may work for you better.  In regards to Eastern University, not particular to this program, there are many graduates who have obtained jobs... They're not the only thing you need to work on, my recommendation has always been a balanced mix/match trifecta of certs, degree, experience...
Thank you for providing the template, here it is.

Your Location: Southern USA
What kind of degree do you want?: Online Masters in Computer Science or Data Science. Currently, I hold a BS in Information Technology.
Any certifications or military experience?: nope
Budget: under 23,000 USD
Commitments: full-time job and taking care of a family member.
Dedicated time to study: nights and weekends
Timeline: starting in the summer preferably
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: Federal aid needed

This seems like it has to be the correct page, and it looks like a total of 10 courses, so $35,000 total for tuition, plus fees:

I would guess that it's reasonable for Ivy League, but still much more than many other options.
