Hey peeps, I've been looking at Morris Brown College and wonder how their degrees are perceived post-graduation. Does anyone have insight into the reputation of Morris Brown's academics and how employers view them?
Hey! Morris Brown College has historically been an important institution within the Atlanta community and the HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) network. However, it's crucial to understand that from 2003 to 2022, Morris Brown had lost its accreditation due to financial difficulties. Though it is once again accredited, this history can impact the overall perception of its degrees in the job market.
While some employers still value Morris Brown's legacy and ideals, others might be more cautious given the accreditation history. It's essential to look beyond the college's reputation when planning your career and focus on building your skills, networking, and creating a strong resume to showcase your experience. Ultimately, it will depend on the employer and the industry whether a degree from Morris Brown is respected.
Also, consider exploring other HBCUs and colleges to compare the benefits and weigh your options. Best of luck with your decision!
