We have a MA student here currently who is in the Army. He was "assigned" to ASU to obtain his degree and the Army is paying everything.
I would imagine the Navy has similar arrangements. Ken --------------------------------------------------------------- Kenneth M.

Annette Is she familiar with the Uniformed Services University? I don't know that they have an online program but she might research their faculty (research interests, I mean) and contact someone there who may have contacts where she is. I just wrote a letter of recommendation for one of our students who is in the Navy- we had an Air Force PhD through one of these programs and he's done extremely well since obtaining his degree.

I know zero about online master's programs, probably for the good reason that in general these seem to be frowned upon so I haven't bothered to learn how to educate myself about them. But her circumstance is a bit unusual. I told her I didn't think so but would check with a wider audience. Do any of you know anything such programs? If any of you are on admissions committees for doctoral programs, especially clinical, do you think this is a good idea given her circumstances? A bad idea? Makes no difference one way or another? Doing real research is nearly impossible for her right now. I know that is the best advice for her. Annette Annette Kujawski Taylor, Ph. D.
