I understand what has been said; however, at the end of the day, I am not getting a “prestigeous” degree, if that makes any sense. I simply want a criminal justice degree to be more competitive when I transition to a state or federal law enforcement agency. From what I have been told, police and federal agencies “don’t give a rat’s ass” as to where a degree came from, only that you have one. And really, like I said, Liberty’s tuition is as much as my military Tuition Assistance, so no out of pocket expenses. But, I was just wanting to make sure that, like said earlier, if I do get a degree from Liberty, it does more good than bad. On a side note, UMUC does not offer a Master’s in criminal justice and their tuition is $458 a credit hour; way over the amount paid by Tuition Assistance.
