My experience with the MTax online program was wonderful. I had the flexibility to work full-time and earn my master’s degree at the same time. Although I did not get to meet my professors in person, I still got to know them quite well. They brought their professional work experience into the classroom and integrated interactive projects and learning activities to help create a collaborative environment. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is looking to earn a Master’s in Taxation while maintaining the flexibility to continue to work.
