Hiya!

I am looking into Masters Programs in Museum Studies and was wondering if anyone could provide any insight. My BA is in History, in case that effects your advice at all. It will have to be a distance program, although I can fly in to complete on campus requirements as long as they can be condensed to a specific time frame, preferably shorter than a month at a time. I am most interested in the the Johns Hopkins, and Harvard Extension School programs. For both programs, I have concerns. Johns Hopkins does not require thesis, and I am worried I will constantly have to explain that Harvard "Extension School" courses are the same caliber as the on campus courses. Both courses have an on campus requirement even though the majority of the program is distance. Another factor is that the GI Bill is paying for my school, so cost is not an issue. I really want the best education that I can possibly get.

Have you gone through or do you have any familiarity with either of these programs? Does either carry less weight because of the above mentioned concerns? Would you recommend either above the other?

Thank you so much!
