Throwaway as have done work slightly related to this industry.

I looked in to MCIT online but the outcomes appeared to be very mediocre. One of the testimonials was a student who got a job in sales at a tech company.

A big tell is if you go to their outcomes page it is a bit embarrassing in the lack of anything to boast about. https://online.seas.upenn.edu/degrees/mcit-online/outcomes/

First testimonial: "Halfway through her first year in MCIT Online, Xunjing Wu is considering applying for a product management role."

Pay $26,000 to consider applying for a role.

Wow that is such a weak statement that I would be embarrassed to write it. “Considering applying”. Not even considering an offer. They are not even sure if they should apply? How is that an outcome you want to publish?
