Merrimack College Data Science Masters? - Zed - 02-05-2020
Does anyone have any experience with Merrimack?
They claim to have a competency-based program, but seem to still charge per credit (a lot).
I really like the idea of competency-based programs, and the curriculum appears to be a proper Data Science program. WGU is certainly much more affordable, but is definitely more of a Data Analytics curriculum (not quite the same as Data Science).

I would just call them and ask. Sometimes, it's easier to do that then ask here, where no one may have info. Just pick up your phone and call them and get all your questions answered in (probably) less than 2 minutes.
