is it worth it to go to college?
I know some of the old reputation of University of Phoenix. My current tribal government job offers full coverage cost of the degree programs they provide. Should I go for it? Or is it a waste of my time? I have my bachelor's degree from a state school, but dont have time to take 2 classes like state funding requires for loans.

If your tribal government is covering the full cost then why not? Free education is free education, even if the school has some reputation issues. Since you already have a bachelor’s from a state school, employers will probably look at that first anyway
The convenience factor might be worth it alone – those online programs are designed for working people who can’t do the traditional college schedule. Just make sure whatever you’re studying actually helps with your career goals and isn’t just random credits 🤷♂️
What kind of program are you thinking about?
University of Phoenix is a for-profit school.
Never attend a for-profit school.
They are not accredited.
If it’s free then yes. If you have to pay for it, then no. I worked for and graduated from UOP years ago. I enjoyed the education and was taught by actual business people in their fields, but the school is a money grab.
If someone else is covering the cost of your education then get. that. education.
Why is that your only choice? That in itself is suspicious.
Will the tribal government pay if it was a different school?
