F all of this, I want to go to Number 7.
The correct way to spell master's degree is with the apostrophe. The s in master's indicates a possessive (the degree of a master), not a plural. If you're speaking of a specific degree, you should capitalize master and avoid creating a possessive: Master of Science. The same rules apply to a bachelor's degree.
Montana State University - Architecture: Easily in top 5
