Doctoral Degrees at Walden University

In October 2016, a class-action lawsuit was filed against Walden University for allegedly misleadingly marketing that doctoral degrees cost $60,000-$70,000 and take about three years to complete when, in reality, the degrees cost $100,000-$200,000 and take much longer than three years to complete.
