Sure is! I attended thier Student forum and asked if they are also looking to add a Masters program. Looks like a very big possibilty of them adding a Masters of Philosophy to which I asked how much would a masters cost and they spitballed around the $5k area for a masters which is also very affordable.

Interesting 5k masters in philosophy sounds cool, but how useful would it be?

I guess it is just as useful as a degree in gender studies.

I would think it is more for personal achievement in this case. Not too sure about how useful it would be. 

I got the B.A Liberal Arts, Business Administration which had me hesitant cause its a liberal arts degree. However, it led to my night job giving me a better role and slight pay raise. So the $1,500 was worth it in my case.

Hey, if it works, it works. I'm just trolling here. I am happy to see that your last degree from Newlane has landed you a new position and a raise. That is the power of the forums, providing information to our community that some can benefit from by completing the programs shared.

I gotcha, I had the same opinion though. A Masters of Philosophy does not seem beneficial besides personal achievement and or maybe admittance to a doctorates program?
