Would I be better off not getting a degree at all rather than getting a degree from Capella University?

Question

Would I be better off not getting a degree at all rather than getting a degree from Capella University?

Answer 1

You would be better off not wasting your money! These type of schools are expensive and their degrees are not worth the paper that they print it on!!!!

Answer 2

Irrelevant of where you get that piece of paper from, a degree is one of the most important things needed in order to be successful today.

Plus its easier to get into another university as a transfer student with good grades than a student direct from high-school.

Stay in school. From personal experience, you'll regret dropping out.

Answer 3

Go for the degree.

It may seem like a waste of time as of right now, but in the long run it will help you with your career and you will be so happy to have made the decision to obtain your degree.

Answer 4

If you ask 100 general people what they think of Capella University, about 98 will answer with "who?", one will have a favorable impression, and one will have an unfavorable impression.  (not a scientifically based comment, but you get the idea)

Those "in the know" are fully aware of who and what Capella University is and asking the question here implies that you question the value and/or utility of that degree.  If that is the case then you should explore another option.

There are plenty of options out there and in the final analysis, you have to be happy with your choice.  It matters very little in your life what I think of Capella; it may matter what prospective employers think.

No matter where you ask though - there will always be some people that think that College X is the only "real" college in the world or that any college below Tier Y isn't worth the effort.

You should attend the very best college that you can.  If that's Capella then the degree you get from there will be more than the degree you don't get from anywhere.
