Northcentral University Unveils Locked Tuition Rates, Career Services for New Master's Students
NCU MASTER's Plan Built on Tuition Lock offers students fixed tuition rates over the course of earning a degree, plus extensive career exploration and recruitment services
SAN DIEGO, July 23, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- It's no secret that earning a master's degree helps job candidates stand out. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, more than a third of American adults have a four-year college degree, while only 9.3 percent of adults over 25 have a master's. For many potential graduate students, however, earning their master's degree can seem like a challenge when balancing already busy lives filled with the demands of home and work.
The online graduate-focused University, serves working professionals globally through its unique value proposition, which includes a flexible one-to-one learning model and a 100% doctoral faculty. This unique approach has been extremely appealing to doctoral students and after extensive research, Northcentral University (NCU) has today announced an innovative new approach to supporting those who want to earn a master's degree.
The in-depth research that was conducted for NCU revealed the opportunity to create an even more unique value proposition for master's students. Today NCU is announcing a suite of no-cost benefits for new master's students, on top of its already distinctive offerings.
The NCU MASTER's Plan includes:
- Tuition Lock: Provides new NCU master's students (except Marriage and Family Therapy) with an understanding of their investment up front with the security of guaranteed tuition rates that will not increase during the duration of their program.
- Career Pathway: NCU advisors will provide employment insights to students using the Burning Glass® Technologies Career Insight™ platform, offering information on specific job titles by location, such as the number of people hired in the past year at that location, along with average salaries and average time to fill the position.
- Career Connection: NCU is establishing relationships with national recruiting firms, such as Randstad, to help connect NCU students approaching graduation with potential employment opportunities.
"The NCU MASTER's Plan Built on Tuition Lock is a great example of how Northcentral University is innovating for students and continues to provide a premier educational experience," said Russ Natoce, Chief Marketing Officer for NCU. "A master's degree can be the key to a fulfilling career and brighter future, but when uncertain costs or job placement stand in the way, it becomes harder to take that next step. NCU is helping to remove potential hurdles so students can focus on achieving their higher education goals. This represents another way NCU delivers more total value to students."
The NCU MASTER's Plan Built on Tuition Lock is available for all master's students (except Marriage and Family Therapy) who enroll or enrolled after July 2. Classes begin every Monday, with no GMAT or GRE required for application and no residency requirement.
