I recently completed my BAAS in Organizational Leadership through East Texas A&M University. I am considering to go one step further and get a Master or MBA degree. I have a pretty good understanding of Regional Accreditation vs. National Accreditation as well as the two main business school specific accreditations (AACSB and ACBSP). Here are the options I've looked at thus far. Please note, they're not in any specific order of preference. 


- Hellenic American University: MBA. Regional Accreditation but no AACSB or ACBSP. Not sure of cost, website says $3,000 but it also says that promo ended years ago so not sure what it costs now. 

- University of Maine at Presque Isle: MSB. Regional Accreditation but no AACSB or ACBSP. I guess possible to finish in 2-4 terms so total cost $5,000 - $10,000? 

- SSBM Geneva: MBA. No U.S. Accreditation since it's a Swiss school, however, their MBA program is ACBSP accredited. Total cost $7,000. 

My question is, what is "better"? A degree from a U.S. RA school without ACBSP or a degree from an international school with ACBSP accreditation? Lastly, do y'all have any other options I'm overlooking? I don't really care if it's an MBA or MS or MA degree (as long as it's in business, management, entrepreneurship, leadership, etc.). It just has to be "legit". It's also not for career purposes per se, it's more of a bucket list item although it may help with my career down the road obviously.

Applied Computing and Information Sciences, Ph.D. Online

"To earn the Doctorate in Applied Computing and Information Sciences, students must complete 66 graduate credit hours beyond the bachelor’s degree."

"Online graduate students have the benefit of flat-rate, $480-per-credit tuition, or $1,440 for each 3-credit course."

They're running a pretty sweet program where you get a class online for free if you a: are an Alabama alum; Bb: a community college proferror at an Alabama institution, or c: referred by a U of Alabama Online student or alum.

So, any alum wanna hook me up with that referral?

I see the light at the end of the tunnel!

I'm ramping down with my final elective for the MBA at HAU and thought it would be worthwhile to jot a few words here for others to find. Firstly, a big thank you to everyone on this site who has taken the time to curate the lists, resources, and links to make finding higher education accessible and affordable. You're doing good work and making a small, positive impact in the world, and a huge positive impact on the lives of people who weren't born with a silver spoon in their mouths.

For anyone who is thinking about starting a degree or finishing one you had to put on hold: You can do it. The hardest part is getting started (followed closely by any capstone thesis), but you can find the rhythm and reach those goals if you stay committed and focus on the assignments one week at a time.

I'm in a liminal state of euphoria because nearly 15 years ago, I tried to go the traditional brick-and-mortar route and ended up spending more in one year than my entire UoPeople BS and HAU MBA combined. And I wouldn't even say the education was any worse. Less hands-on, for sure, but it has opened doors and provided tools I use every day. As someone mid-career, I can comfortably say the checkboxes have been marked, and I feel prepared to use the knowledge gained in a practical setting. And what's best is I'm not saddled with debt for the next X-number of years!

In a few short weeks, I get to request graduation, take a well-deserved nap, and then figure out what I want to be when I grow up. I never thought I'd have a Master's degree. Maybe I'll collect some more letters after my name in the future.

Hi everyone,

I'm an 18-year-old high school student from China, and this is my first post here. I've been researching TESU for a while and plan to pursue a BA with a double major in Computer Science and Mathematics.

My Situation:
I plan to transfer most General Education credits from Sophia. However, my long-term goal is to apply for Grad School (Masters/PhD) in the future. Because of this, I am very concerned about having a solid GPA and enough graded RA credits on my transcript, rather than just "Pass/Fail" credits.

The Problem (The 30 RA Credit Rule):
I understand TESU requires 30 RA credits for graduation.

1. I plan to take the 16-credit Flat-Rate Term at TESU to get some graded Upper-Level credits and satisfy the residency requirement.
2. However, this still leaves me with a gap of ~14 RA credits.
3. Since I am an international student with zero prior college experience, I have no RA credits to transfer in.

My Questions:

1. Filling the Gap:
Should I just take a second term at TESU to cover these remaining 14 RA credits? Or is it better to find an online Community College?
My worry: I want to make sure these credits satisfy the RA requirement AND provide a Letter Grade (A/B) for my grad school applications. I heard TECEP exams are RA but only Pass/Fail—is that true? If so, I should probably avoid them for my core major courses, right?


2. The "2-Term" Strategy:
Is it a viable strategy to simply do two terms at TESU (approx. 30 credits total) to cover all the RA requirements?
 I was thinking of taking the "hard" courses (like Calculus 3, Linear Algebra, Data Structures) directly at TESU during these two terms. This would give me a real GPA for these core subjects. Is this a common path for people who want to go to grad school later?



I've been trying to plan this out using various tools (and getting confused by Gemin AI chatbox), so I really trust the human expertise here more.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Built this and a few other things as well...  

"Ellie Farrell, a 19-year-old mechanical engineering student from Dublin, Ireland, has built a fully functional Iron Man suit inspired by the comic book character Tony Stark."

Hmm, it doesn't really matter what field you want to go into, what matters is if you have the heart and interest in learning that particular field or subject.  Go for it, being someone new to the field shouldn't restrict your entry into engineering or whatever it may be, even a trade or something else...
