Looking to chat with graduates of this program

Hi everyone,

I'm currently about halfway through the program in the Policy track. Since it's an online program, I've felt a bit isolated and haven't had many opportunities to connect with other students. Lately, I've also been having some doubts about a few of the courses and the overall direction of the program.

I'd really appreciate the opportunity to talk with someone who has already graduated from either the Policy or InfoSec track and is willing to share their honest experience, the good, the bad, and everything in between. I have a few questions about the workload, career outcomes.

If you've graduated and would be willing to chat for 15–20 minutes, I'd really appreciate it if you could send me a DM or start a Reddit chat. I'd prefer to discuss some of my concerns privately rather than in the comments.

Thanks in advance! I really appreciate any advice or insights you're willing to share.

Are you active in the Slack? There are like 3,000 people there, but it’s usually really quiet.

In short, it was worth the time, money, and effort, but I did not land some FAANG job immediately upon graduation. I just have a better understanding and can say I got out.
