It is still beyond expensive. Especially at somewhere like Imperial. First you need to get a BSc degree = $28k+ Then you need to fork an extra $36,000 (USD) £28,000 (GBP) for the online masters which you are paying for the University brand and course. Question is, Is it still worth it?

Apart from the obvious debt. The other Cons? loss of networking opportunities, $14k more expensive, small risk of inferiority to a normal degree. But I guess for some with deep pockets, if the University isn't ranked highly in the world or 'Ivy League' or 'Golden Triangle' then for that price? It is not even worth considering.
