[QUOTE="aaron97, post: 16509211, member: 66010"] I would have to say No it doesn't matter too much where she gets her degree, but some institutes have a stigma about them, for example University of Phoenix. Where you went to school might have an effect in the long term. Regardless where you go, when you enter the workforce as a rookie, it doesn't really matter. It could come into play later in life, but these opinions are very field-specific to my situation, aerospace engineering. A BS in Engineering is good from any school, but if you hope to be a manager one day, you need a Masters in Business Administration or Project Management from a more recognized school. The reason being, the top tier managers, VPs, and CEO are all ivy league graduates (Harvard, Preston, Columbia) and they like to keep it that way. In the end, the biggest factor is going to be who she will have to compete against for employment and how many opportunities for employment are available. The more in-demand the job, the less the credentials matter. For example, I work with a couple guys that are completely unqualified for the job, but there were no other candidates applying to the positions at the time, so they got hired. [/QUOTE]
