  Im Confused on where to go next???
Posted by: VintageGirl85 - 01-08-2025, 08:46 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (7)

OK so here is where im at.... to get a pay raise at my school district I need to add 45 credits or 90 credits....I am at my wits end on figuring out a creative way to get this done... I dont care if i get another AA or BA as long as I can get as many credits (90) on a transcript from an approved school BEFORE June. I don't believe it needs to be another ED degree etc, and I dont care WHAT degree or area it is in as long as its fast cheap and takes as many of these sophia classes as possible. 

Im in Washington state, 40 not sure else yall need to know ask ill answer Smile 

GOAL= FASTEST AND CHEAPEST PATH POSSIBLE FULLY ONLINE!

State requirements for the credits to count towards continuing ed can be found here: OPSI CREDIT POLICY

Currently hold a BAed from WGU 2013

  Looking for Online Master Degree
Posted by: TINASAM - 01-08-2025, 07:37 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (9)

Due to an unexpected career opportunity, I'm looking for an additional Master degree. I need it all online, no campus visits, asynchronous if possible. Don't think there is a CBE option but not opposed to it. School needs to be RA but will think about NA options if you find them super cheap.

Your Location: USA
Your Age: 55
What kind of degree do you want?: Master in English or Composition
Current Regional Accredited Credits: N/A - won't be transferring credit
Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits:N/A - won't be transferring credit
Any certifications or military experience?:N/A - won't be transferring credit
Budget: preferably under 12k.
Commitments: some, but I've been dual degree'ing it for three years now while working fulltime so I got this.
Dedicated time to study:as much as needed.
Timeline: doesn't matter
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: No

  One-time Residency Requirement
Posted by: Mint Berry Crunch - 01-08-2025, 03:02 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (3)

Just wanted to clarify: UMPI only has a 1-time residency requirement (30 credits) that you must complete with them (UMPI). After that, you can transfer the remaining amount of credits/courses towards the next degree. You would just have to pay the cost of tuition for that semester and have all credits needed transferred within that semester. Essentially, if you complete a Bachelor's at UMPI (you should be transferring in the maximum 90 credits anyway and knocking out 30 credits there) through YourPace, you simply transfer the remaining courses/credits needed for the next degree you wish to pursue. That means if you only need to do 2 courses to complete the degree plan for the next degree you wish to pursue there, then you only need to transfer/complete 2 courses for that degree plan. If it's 4 courses, you can transfer in the 4 courses.

  Advice on Educational Programs and Career Options
Posted by: soba - 01-08-2025, 01:58 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Hi,

I am seeking general advice as well as recommendations for programs in teaching or education that align with my background and goals.

My primary goal is to work in higher education as a researcher, professor, or instructor. Alternatively, I would be interested in administrative roles related to education. I hold a PhD in mathematics and have two years of experience as a temporary instructor/professor. During this time, I taught various courses in engineering and computer science programs. Unfortunately, this experience has not been sufficient to secure even a temporary teaching position for 2025. Despite applying for numerous positions across Europe, I have not had any success.

Currently, I am working at a large engineering firm, but I find it unfulfilling and am actively looking for alternatives. I feel quite discouraged and would appreciate guidance on further education and potential career paths.

Teaching is something I am deeply passionate about, and I would love to contribute to curriculum design or similar areas. While I am not interested in becoming a licensed K-12 teacher—due to the requirement for student teaching, which doesn't fit my schedule—I am open to studying K-12 education from an academic perspective.

Could you suggest programs in areas such as educational theory, educational sociology, instructional design, curriculum studies, or similar fields that might suit my needs?

Here are my specific requirements for such programs:

  1. They should be close to 100% asynchronous, with exams that are flexible or held on weekends.
  2. Preferably self-paced, with minimal or no group work.
  3. Total cost should not exceed 10,000 EUR.
  4. No student teaching or requirements to have access to a classroom.
Thank you for your time and any advice you can offer!

  Using ACTFL LTI to test my native language for easy and cheap college credits
Posted by: sakasaba - 01-08-2025, 09:46 AM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (7)

Basically what the title says. I'm a US citizen from the day I was born who speaks native level English. I wanted to know if anyone else has done this before and if it works, would the credits count as free electives or humanities? I plan on going to UMPI online for one of their BLS degrees.

  Will my Bachelor of Arts Computer Science accepted in Germany
Posted by: Ghosttt999 - 01-07-2025, 08:15 PM - Forum: TESU - Thomas Edison State University Discussion - Replies (11)

Hi Everyone,

I apologies, this is my first time making a thread and actually talking on this website. I'm doing Dual Degree BA CS & BS CIS from Thomas Edison State University. I plan on doing Masters in Computer Science in Germany.

My questions are:
1) Will my Bachelor of Computer Science be accepted in Germany for Masters?
2) As I'm transferring credits from Sophia and Study.com , will that be a problem for the German universities to see most of my credits being transferred to my degree?
3) I see usually German Universities have specific requirements to have number of credits in specific courses to be eligible for Masters in Computer Science. As I'm doing Dual Degree program with plan, should I drop BS CIS and focus on BA CS and take more mathematics, theoretical computer and software engineering related courses to meet requirements for the degrees.

I don't have any specific German University in mind but I'd like to study my Masters of Computer Science in English. Some university I checked are Hasso Plattner-Institut, Technical University of Berlin but honestly I'm open to any as long as its free for international students and the language used is English.

Thank you in advance, and sorry if I'm doing anything wrong as its my first time making a thread.
Cheers!
