I'm currently in the process of applying to different graduate schools in order to offset my horrible undergrad GPA. For certain schools, the application allows you to choose whether you want in the thesis or non-thesis program. For one of these schools, the degree awarded for the non-thesis option is an M.A instead of an M.S.
So my question essentially is this: If I elect to go the non-thesis route, will it look like I'm taking the easy way out?
I'm also trying to think of back-up plans in case I don't get into D-School after the masters. Will I be "hireable" after getting a non-thesis masters?? Or should I just suck it up and do the thesis option??
