This degree provided me the education, to connect with the people that I want to connect with. Being able to work and finish the degree was practical and manageable. It was, something that, somebody in their adult life can manage. So I would recommend a master’s program to those who, have been wondering and sitting for a while, should I go back to college to get my master’s degree? Yes. I would recommend this to you. Go ahead and go for it.
