Because, for a Marketing degree, I'm not certain that you'll get a bang for your buck from a more well known school - especially if it's not local to where you live, so the networking will be close to non-existent.
I have to write a paper on marketing roles for a class this week and the job titles we were given to search have ridiculous salaries for the degree requirements. One of marketing positions has an average salary of $36K. What? All of the roles we have to research make $60K or less a year. It was shocking! No way I would spend a chunk of change on a marketing degree. There's not a ton of money in marketing for those working behind the scenes unfortunately. Once one has a few years experience, the college name on the degree isn't much use.
