Minot State Online MSIS, ~10K USD, 1 Year

[bjcheung77]

I was online and searching for a Masters in Information Systems and came across this from Minot State University.  For international or non-resident students, this one is for you because... "All students pay the same in-rate costs"!   The fastest one can finish is within two semesters if you complete all 10 courses required.  Have a look at their pages for info, see below for links to brochure, schedule, etc:

this is interesting. they have 'real time' online programs

Real Time Online programs require some or all courses to be attended at a day and time. For more information on scheduling and options, please contact the department for more information.
Majors

• Bachelor of Applied Science in Interpreting and Sign Language Studies
   
  
  
• Bachelor of Science in Computer Science (Starting Fall 2021)
  

I guess it's good for a CS program since you can get live help if need be.

Yup, I saw that as well. The only thing is, it's at a Bachelors level, if that was a Masters level and I have the energy/money/time, the Computer Science would be a better option than Information Systems even though they overlap a little bit... and here are their online programs, real time or not - https://www.minotstateu.edu/online/degrees.shtml

So how much do they charge for MSIS ?

[bjcheung77]

Hey, it's affordable... ~10K for the Masters in Info Systems - If you want to be exact, it's $9935.28
Tuition as per my previous link above: https://www.minotstateu.edu/busoffic/pag...0-21.shtml

10 courses, 3 credits each. https://www.minotstateu.edu/busoffic/pag...0-21.shtml

It works out to around $12k, I think.

That doesn't look like a very good deal to be honest.


San Jose State University also offers online Master's in Informatics for $15,000:

If you're calculating by credits only, yes. That's how much it will be. But if you read the link you posted.
Someone taking 12-18 credits pay the same price, take two 15 credits and you'll come to the price I wrote.
It's under ~10K or if you want to be exact, it's $9935.28 , it's an alright price for a state/public university.

It's an alright deal for someone like me, like everything else, it all depends on what the person is looking for, it's not always one school fits all type of thing... The program at SJSU seems pretty good after a quick skim through. Both of the schools are state/public ones, but they target different demographics. I'll look into the courses and subject matter that's being taught and decide which ones would be better... I'm still favoring Computer Science vs Info Systems but thought this would be something interesting to be shared.
