Applying to grad schools with multiple transcripts

The Indiana program is on my list

I took the IU certificate course (link below) for two reasons:
1) at the time I was converting a written certification course to an online format
2) I wanted an overview of IT so I could learn the language and decide if I wanted to pursue a Masters
3) I thought it couldn't hurt a resume

Indiana University Online and Distance Education School of Continuing Studies Certificate in Distance Education Program

The certificate course went pretty heavily into educational theory...I get the impression that if you go with the IU program (tier 1 school/education dept), you will become an expert on educational theory....which could end up serving you well. I know that it wouldn't be nearly as easy as the other programs that allow you to take 12-15 credits worth of multimedia/web/flash courses...but I bet you would end up being able to hold your own with anyone. You also have to consider the job leads that come from being associated with the IU program.

BTW I was the only person who paid his way in the certificate course, the others in that course were from academia, from the US Army War College, GM, a few IT consulting companies etc...

Just food for thought...IU is considered tier 1 for a reason
