    I knew a guy who was about 40, had 20 years experience, was running his own company but wanted to get an M.A. in branding. He did it part time, 1 day a week. Kept his other work going. Everyone agreed it would be a waste of time doing the B.A to M.A. route so he was allowed to go straight for the M.A. Seemed to go well for him, he made a shit load of contacts, made his company stronger.

    Can you not try and do that? If you've got 15 years experience you might get a bit bored on a 3-4 year course.

    • Depends on what he's going back for. If it's something he already knows a lot about, then he could try this.Jaline
    • That's what I was thinking... I thought maybe they might give credit for "life/design experience". I'm hoping to talk to a few different university chairs after the first of the year. I figure it's worth a shot. Hopefully a portfolio of work, a resume of years experience might help help.flickster
    • They do this in college. They will advance you if you have "real world" experience. Worth a try.Jaline
