A Business Degree from a Reputed College for $5300

Easy Way For Those With Training, Partial Credits or Self Acquired Knowledge to Get a Reputed College Degree at very Low Cost.
Nice to learn from a recent article in The New York Times that there is a very cheap and easy way for adults to get a college degree from a New Jersey public college and similar institutions. The total cost for a business and associate degree was only $5300, the article says,

"At a time when student debt has passed $1 trillion, such institutions seem to have, at the very least, impeccable timing. Thomas Edison, New Jersey’s second-largest public college, and two like-minded institutions — Charter Oak State College in Connecticut and the private, nonprofit Excelsior College in New York — are all growing. .... And the idea of measuring students’ competency, not classroom hours, has become the cornerstone of newer institutions like Western Governors University in Utah," the article notes.

Here is the link to the article:
