<p>Currently my wife and I both attend Walden University. They have given me a 25% discount on my tuition since my wife goes there as well. It has applied to my account because she will be graduating sometime this year and myself a few more years. </p>
<p>I have told my wife about switching schools. But she says I can’t because of the disbursement check we receive. Since my wife has to pay $500 every three months for her tuition and we don’t have that kind of money we use the disbursement check Walden University sent me to pay it off. </p>
<p>My wife is afraid if I attend a different school. We won’t be getting a disbursement check and she will have to drop school. </p>
<p>So not sure what to do at this point. Help.</p>
<p>Because not many employers have heard about Walden University and I think that will be a negative thing to have when I send them my resume.<br>
I was thinking of going with a state university that have degree programs online. </p>
<p>Also I’m still not sure about getting a degree online vs a traditional brick & mortar school. Walden University is regionally accredited which is good but for-profit as well. When I did a search for Walden University from students it was mostly mixed.</p>
<p>What is this disbursement check actually coming from? If it’s from federal/state aid, that will continue at other schools. Would the public school save you money? You say your wife will graduate this year and it’s January already so if you’re going to apply for transfer you should do it soon. Does she know how many more credits she needs?</p>
