The brick and morter school I looked into costs thirteen thousand dollars! &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Penn Foster&amp;#39;s program is under one thousand! Although there&amp;#39;s a voluntary&amp;nbsp;clinical course that probably costs more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Anyway, it made me wonder if the Dentists offices I apply to will look down on my education. Has anyone had an&amp;nbsp;experience&amp;nbsp;interviewing for&amp;nbsp;this or any other field where you felt that your degree was seen as less impressive than a regular school?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks,&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alex&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Alex&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
