How do employers feel about this online university? They're accredited but I don't see much information about their alumni like where they got jobs or the average salary of an alumni from WQU. It's appealing because it is free but if it is not recognized or taken seriously by employers I don't think it is worth it. I am considering applying but I don't see much information online. I am located in NYC so there are a bunch of Financial engineering masters programs in my area.

I have been wondering this. If I had to guess I would say that a WQU degree is second to an equivalent degree from a credited traditional university. Try finding some people who completed the program on LinkedIn and ask about their experience.
