I am pursuing a Master of Science in Information Systems degree after High School and I was just wondering how long it would take. At Strayer University it's a total of 324 credit hours and I don't know exactly how the credit hours and all that works. All I know right now is that I have to first get an Associate in Arts degree which is 90 credit hours then a Bachelor of Science which is 180 and finally the Master of Science which is 54. And also if you have any suggestions of other schools that might offer this around the Raleigh/Durham area in North Carolina that would be helpful too.

Strayer is worthless. No legitimate graduate school will take a Bachelor's in IS from Strayer, so you would be stuck taking Strayer all the way through. Then you will be jobless, with employers routinely throwing your job application listing Strayer degrees directly into the trash. Weren't you warned before you signed up for this disastrous school?

Please consider another school besides strayer as it is one of those online, for-profit schools (though may have 'brick and mortar' campuses and may be 'accredited') including penn foster, ashworth, devry, university of phoenix, capella, everest, kaplan, ITT tech, walden, remington and others as they are merely out to 'make a profit' (and course credits may Not transfer to other schools). There is a definite pattern with those online, for-profit schools regardless of any few positive stories ;) http://www.ripoffreport.com and http://www.pissedconsumer.com and http://www.complaintsboard.com and can search. Please instead consider a more traditional university as just about all of them offer some online classes. For US colleges: http://www.utexas.edu/world/univ For general career info: http://www.bls.gov/oco and can search 'computer software engineers and computer programmers', 'computer and information systems managers' or such.
