3rd degree at TESU

[sarahmac]

i feel having a 3rd bachelors loses meaning at that point. If I was a hiring manager, I'd be more skeptical than impressed, to see 3 bachelors degrees in someone's CV. Certificate, Associates, Masters or even bootcamps would make more sense after the 2nd Bachelors.

You are entitled to your opinion, but everyone has different circumstances.

My husband initially got a checkbox degree for the military. Now he is applying to officer slots that require degrees with certain majors specifically listed in the title. So he has to go back and finish a degree in math, computer science, engineering or some other STEM subject on the list to be eligible. The military gives not one single f about boot camps or certificates, nor does the federal government. (I would know, I do have a hiring authority at a govt research institute...)

He is doing the BA-BSBA thing because there is life after the military, and the BSBA Accounting/CPA allows him to meet the CPA criteria for his home state. He cannot get a master's in Math without a bachelor's in it, and why would he pay for a master's accounting over doing a dual-degree at TESU for a fraction of the cost?

Sometimes, it just isn't about hiring managers... This is one example, but I have seen plenty of people on this board with their own reasons.
