"WGU Masters of Science in Data Analytics (MSDA) Review"
"Online MS in Data Science"

Review of the WGU "Masters of Science in Data Analytics" degree. So I spent 1,208 hours across 10+ months putting in 29 hours a week on top of a full time job to obtain a graduate degree in data analytics. I believe it was a great deal and a fun experience and run through the pros and cons.
