UpGrad DBA Golden Gate U - 70% scholarships for 5,000 students

[ss20ts]

But the same question from my last 4 post goes to you, how does a 65k-70k $ worth degree ends up being sold by an Indian company for 12k-15k ? since you are saying it is not outsourced as someone else pitched the idea.

The same way Coursera degrees are cheaper than degrees offered directly by the school: negotiations and advertising. They've done the calculations and decided that they can offer a discount of X amount to students coming from Y platform. It's not an uncommon practice these days. 

A better question you should be asking: Why are they charging local students who don't know about UpGrad an extra $50k+ for a degree that apparently only costs them about $10k to deliver?

Because they can.

Because people will pay it.

Coursera courses have professors from the school and aren't offering a discount to one country only like the GGU program.
