By the way, I am also considering this program but am concerned that employers or graduate schools may treat a liberal art degree differently, as inferior to a regular BA or BSc degree in that you actually have no major.
If employers or graduate schools treat a liberal art degree differently, there would not be so many students from ivy league schools getting an undergrad in history or English, etc. Sadly, most people say, getting a ivy league degree will not make a difference, they are mistaken, at least in my experience. Resume scanner (ATS) give special treatment to where a job applicant went to school. Went to a ivy league, more points for you, higher on the potential call list for screening for a job interview. Went to a ivy league, more potential for job networking because you are part of an exclusive club now. Whether its fair or not, that's up for debate.
