For some reason, I felt it is an essential knowledge for a successful manager, analyst, executive&#8230; to be more familiar with the legal aspect of the job duties (As a helper) Currently I&#8217;m pursuing MBA (healthcare) with WGU and I like it, I will be done with it soon and started looking for a university\/ college offering the law degree I want, a degree to know the law not to practice it.<\/p>\n<p>I found a Master of Science in Health Law by NSU, it will cost around $25,000 (same cost as my MBA) edit: (2X the cost of my MBA), WGU charges $13,000 for the whole program in 2 years and less if you are able to finish it faster. I think it is too much for a helper degree plus it is not 100% online &#8220;there are 3 required visits to the campus&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>I started looking for other 100% online law degrees with cheaper price tag, I wasn&#8217;t successful in finding a lot. I was wondering if anyone can comment on the real benefits of the master of law, if any.<\/p>\n<p>And if there are any other online options to gain the law knowledge like a certificate&#8230; Any opinion or suggestion is appreciated.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I always thought of studying law to add the law degree under my belt.
