Well. I did get my master’s when I quit, but, at my school, I didn’t have to do anything special for it; I just happened to be at a point when I had had enough and quit (about 3 years in) that I just kinda ended up with it. But a master’s in linguistics is pretty close to useless unless a person does computational/AI language stuff because most other linguistics jobs are PhD-level research/fieldwork/teaching jobs.
