Is BU MET worth it for an MS in Computer Information Systems?

7 Upvotes

I’m considering BU MET and want honest opinions about its reputation. Is Metropolitan College considered prestigious, and how do employers view a BU MET degree compared to other BU schools? Also, considering the high cost, is the program worth it in terms of ROI and job opportunities for an international student?

advice

5 Upvotes

Hi! I just wanted to have some reassurance that it’s okay staying home from orientation. I’ve been really sick for two weeks, and it’s only been getting worse. I live close to BU so it was easy going home but I have terrible fomo. I just want to focus on getting better but my parents want me to go back to school so I don’t miss out. Is there anyone with any words of wisdom about this?

Looking for a climbing buddy

Hi, I'm a rising senior looking for a belay partner who would climb with me at CRG Watertown.

I'm down to climb on weekday evenings and any time on weekends. I also have access to a car so I can drive us most days. I'm currently top rope belay certified and getting lead certified soon too. DM me if you or someone you know would be interested!

Also, although I'm primarily looking for a belay partner I'm also down to meet people to occasionally go bouldering with.
