I am considering getting my criminal justice masters degree online. I did my bachelors online, but I am curious to what to expect regarding how much work a master’s degree in criminal justice requires. Is there is big difference between a masters degree and other degrees in how much work is required and how much harder and time consuming it could be?
Jamie,
I really like your questions and will use them in one of my blog posts in the near future. The truth is the questions are a little more complicated and are dependent on factors that you can only know. But I’ll try anyway.
Regardless of which online school you went to, how many classes you took at one time, and the structure of the program I am confident you will have an upper edge when it comes to online learning at a graduate level.
From my perspective, I enjoyed my Masters more than I did when I went for my undergrad. One big reason, I was more passionate about what I wanted to do after I obtained my Masters degree in Criminal Justice. When I went to Colorado Technical University for Business I had 2 classes at one time, but when I went to Boston University for my masters I only had 1 class at a time. I liked the class load at CTU, but one class at BU made it more manageable for me to turn in assignments, participate in discussions, and keep up with the assigned reading.
The reality in all this is everything is dependent on your own belief in yourself, your abilities, and devotion to your subject area. You can expect more work on a graduate level, but it can become whatever you want it to become (easier or harder). One last advice: don’t run away from prestigious schools that are often much cheaper than their commercial counterparts just because you may think they will be harder. The end result can propel you further when you start weighing your career options. I hope this helps you. Good luck!
