Anybody Getting a Good Job with Distance Learning Degrees?

[abby]

Great discussion so far! All this feedback about master's degrees is encouraging to me as a young person. So...the "weird" distance learning people actually can, and DO make it in the real world...wow .

Any suggestions for a "babe in the woods" aspiring for higher education (i.e. Masters, Ph.D)? Spec., any ideas of how a GPA works with Thomas Edison? Would a tradational college take my GPA from Thomas Edison courses ONLY, or is the GPA also calculated from my CLEPS/DANTES scores? Any and all ideas, comments, and suggestions would be welcome!

[SIZE="4"]Your GPA is calculated by your courses, not the tests. A pass is a pass for the tests (even TESC's TECEPs) so no letter grade is administered and does not go toward your GPA. And, I hadn't heard that the DANTES are letter-graded. They do give you a "this is what your score would look like" grade though. But anyways, pass the tests, but excel in your courses--especially if you only take a few. [/SIZE]
