So I just google mapped it and it looks like the "fastest" route is only about 5300 miles. Why is it so important to more than double your mileage just to hit the 23 countries? You would go through 7 if you took this faster route (although a lot of Siberia)

What are you doing to make MissionU a credible institution? If I'm an employer, I'm hiring people from, say, UCLA, because I know a lot about UCLA's programs and know what their faculty is known for, etc. If I'm a student, I might question the high tuition, but go there nonetheless because I know employers will find UCLA on my resume to be impressive. Yes, the debt I'll be in will be very high, but essentially, I'm not paying for just any degree, I'm paying for a degree at this particular place, a premium for the accredited institution, if you will.

So, it appears that MissionU makes their money off of getting their alumni employed, and my question is simply, how do they get employers to hire their students for 50k jobs, when they don't have the same establishment of hundreds of universities like UCLA

Second question, if a student doesn't end up working, say, I go to MissionU as a "just for fun" type thing (maybe retired and bored, i dont know), do I still owe anything if I'm not working?

Thanks for the AMA. I was lucky enough not to face any debt out of undergrad but know that it can be a crippling problem for some people that follows them well into their adult life, and most certainly had a few friends/coworkers who are forced to be conservarive with their spending after college

You got the wrong guy. You want /u/one_small_steppe

Instead of sitting in some miserable shelter, why didn't you just pack some food, get everyone in the car, drive a few hours north and relax in a hotel?
