I am looking to complete an affordable MBA, not for financial gain or for employment. I came across this "free" MBA from Signum Magnum College. They offer a free MBA if you join their ambassador program and refer at least one person. I am from the US so I am unfamiliar about accreditation from European countries. Is this pyramid-schemy? Not sure. I went against my better judgement and applied with UoPeople and they tried to scam me. So they are a definitely a no go. Here is the link for the college Signum Magnum College

Been a while since Nexford University was mentioned.

Hi everyone,

I'm curious to know if it's possible in the USA or Canada to skip the 3rd year of high school by passing a proficiency test or something similar. Essentially, is there a way to "hack" the last year of high school?

Does anyone have any experience with this or know if it's feasible?

If yes, what is the cost?

Thanks!

About me: Between Sophia and CC credits I have 86 credits (all lower-level, state government may be upper-level at transfer), and I’m currently attending Liberty online, and will have an additional 9 upper-level credits in early March. I’ve had some road blocks, and have fallen behind schedule, and am looking into alternative options to finish with a Bachelor’s Degree within next 12-14 months.
 
TESU’s BLS with no concentration looks to be a good option. The credit distribution for the BLS states “Students complete a total of 42 credits of Liberal Studies courses that include at least 15 credits at the 3000/4000 level and no more than 6 credits at the 1000 level.”
1.      What classes would generally be considered liberal studies? My 3 UL classes from Liberty would be Photography, U.S. History, and History of Graphic Design.
If my UL credits fell ideally, my gameplan would be to get 6 UL ACE credits to make a round 90s credit, add on 9 credits from Liberty, take 5 TCEPS, then take SOS-1100, and the capstone, and graduate. I’m aware of the ~$4000 waiver.
2.      Do TECEP credits count against the 90-hour credit limit? I imagine this might be my greatest question.
I’m currently in the pre-planning phase, and would likely get started with TESU in March, but wanted to see if there are any holes that would cause this plan to fail.

Hi everyone,

This is my first post, so be merciful if I miss something. Hopefully, I am doing this properly! 

I’m looking for guidance on how to efficiently earn my degree in Education while making the most of my current resources. Here’s my situation:

• I am a Canadian currently studying Computer Science at University of the People (UoPeople) but have decided to switch to Business instead. I am in my first year and only have a few credits.
  
• I have a scholarship at UoPeople, which makes it the most affordable option for me right now.
  
• I don’t have the upfront money to pay for a semester at UMPI or WGU, and it would take me about a year to save up for the required one/two semester needed to graduate from those schools.
  
• I also have access to Sophia.org and Study.com to help with earning credits.
  
• My real goal is to get a degree in Education, but UoPeople does not offer that option.
  

Hi all,
What's the most number of degrees from WGU that you've ever heard of a single person obtaining?  I've been looking at several YouTube channels about WGU, umpi, and other CBE programs. In addition to seeing people finish in 6 months to a year (although that is not the norm), I've noticed several people with multiple degrees from wgu. However, the most I've actually seen either on YouTube or on various forums have been people with three WGU degrees, although several of those folks were working on a fourth.

The reason why I ask is that I know that this forum as well as others like it are full of lifelong learners and many people here are using their annual tuition reimbursement from their employer.  So as long as their employer approves and they really like going to school I can imagine someone picking up a lot of these degrees. 

It reminds me of the guy who used to work for some University in Michigan and picked up 34 University degrees from that school simply by using tuition reimbursement.  In my own life I knew a woman who picked up three or four college degrees while working as an administrative assistant for that university.

I need some help on where I should be spending my time to complete my coursework.  For some reason a bunch of credits didn't transfer over from a Criminal Justice Academy so I need to goto the Source and Request a Transcript - maybe 20 elective credits give or take.

I work full-time and have 2 kids in elementary school - M-F work and get home around 6/630 - kids in bed by 830 so maybe have an hour or 1.5 hours.  Weekends are free.

I would like to get this done as soon as possible as I need to have any kind of Bachelor's Degree to use the Certified Financial Planner marks of which I already passed the exam.

Tried to login to work on course today, and the wording on the website is as follows:
We’re sorry but as of January 29, 2025, OnlineDegree.com is no longer offering its free courses.
We began on a mission to make college more affordable, and to keep our courses free… however, the costs associated with providing this to people have become too great. We made the difficult decision to close the doors.
If you’re an existing student, and would like to request we send a transcript to your university, please send an email to support@onlinedegree.com with your login email, the school, and their address.

By any chance has anyone mapped or done this through TESU?
