Master's Degree - help/insight/encouragement

Published

Hello all,

I am looking at going back to school for a masters in public health. I work full time M-F so online learning is the best option for me. The biggest struggle is financing my education - is there a lot of scholarships and grants out there for master degrees? I am already paying off about $60,000 in student loans as it is, I would like to not add on $40,000 more.

I live in Wisconsin and one online program here is $1,000 per credit, and the other out of state universities are outrageously expensive for non-residents. ANY help is appreciated.

Has anyone heard of Walden? I am looking into this college.

Also, has anyone ever been worried about even making it through a master's degree? As in, what if I'm not smart or good enough? Those are always in the back of my mind.

Help, insight and encouragement is much appreciated.
