I think it is definitely a good question, however, it depends on what state he lives in, as far as requirements to teach. If decides to teach at a college level, or move to another state, he may have to invest in a master degree program. I can understand not wanting to spend the money, and if he could obtain a grant, or some type of subsidy, that may assist in defraying the expense. Also, with a masters he can possibly gravitate into another field, and apply his existing skills, in addition to, his education.

Simple, you need to look at the difference in pay between teaching and private sector.

Is a Masters of science in Nursing worth it?

[@queenlizzie77]

Depends on what you want to do with the Masters and if your employer is reimbursing you. If you want to be a nurse practitioner, Administration, or Nurse Education yes. If your employer is paying, yes yes. If you want to remain bedside nurse, then no.

YES

In my country, you can go straight to PhD with a CGPA 3.75 for Bachelor's.
