This pretty much sums it up. As an immigrant, I had to work full time and study late at night. In terms of differences, at the time, half the courses were the same as Harvard Engineering School, and those were the best courses in the program with the best professors. The other half felt like they were just filling up the curriculum. Overall I'm a much much better developer after having attended Harvard Extension School, though I went for the hardest courses. It's certainly possible to skate by and get your degree by only taking easy courses.
