Looking for advice on choosing a degree for a career change

[frankc]

Hello guys. My wife is a dancer, but she has been unhappy in her current career and has been considering a career change for several years now. She's now seriously considering getting a degree, even if it takes a few years.


Here’s what she’s looking for:

1. A degree from a reputable traditional school: She’s not interested in "check-the-box" degrees from schools like TESU, EU, or WGU. She wants a recognizable degree from a traditional school that she can do online, such as programs like Georgetown on Coursera or Penn State World.
   
2. Good job prospects: She wants a degree that will "guarantee" a job, though I’ve told her that’s nearly impossible unless she pursues something in the medical field like Rad Tech or Nursing.
   
3. No interest in CS or SWE degrees: Although a CS or SWE degree would be great (and something I could definitely help her with), she’s just not interested. I've tried teaching her programming over the past few years, but it's not her thing. And also, she hates Math lol.
   

So at first, she considered a two-year full-time Rad Tech program because it seems to offer good job prospects and job security. However, she’s concerned about the risk of failing a course and then get kick out and the financial and time investment required.
After some research, we’re now considering Penn State World Campus’s Bachelor of Design in Digital Multimedia Design degree for several reasons:

1. Reputation: Penn State World Campus is part of Penn State’s multi-campus system, so her degree would be the same as one from an on-campus program, unlike degrees from rebranded places like Purdue Global or University of Arizona Global (for-profit).
   
2. Transfer credit: Penn state world seems to accept up to 90 transfer credits, including ACE credits, which can make the degree more affordable and quicker to complete. However, we’re still unsure how many credits from places like Study.com or Sophia they accept in practice.
   

We're also not entirely sure what this degree will lead to, but I think it might be related to UX design. She's not particularly interested in anything specific yet, but the name of this degree sounded interesting enough to her.

We’d appreciate any suggestions for other universities or programs. Thank you!
