Wink Cheap accredited MLIS
Posted by: theea - 05-02-2024, 08:08 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (3)

I am looking for an affordable online MLIS program that's ALA-accredited? Join the club! Balancing full-time work, life expenses, and self-funded education is no joke. 

I'm eyeing LSU as a potential option, but before I dive in, I need some specifics. Are there any scholarships specifically geared towards BIPOC students? Also, asynchronous learning is crucial for me due to my unpredictable schedule. 

Of course, cost is a huge factor. And with my 4+ year library work experience, I can't commit to an internship. So, if anyone has insights or experiences with ALA-accredited online MLIS programs, especially at LSU or elsewhere, please share your wisdom! If you went please share your exp. SJSU is affordable but has MORE Classes and an internship. Any help is appreciated.

Hi Everyone,

Currently doing a touchstone for English. However, I am unsure of which format they require. Anyone have an idea whether I should be doing APA or MLA for my papers?

Thank you!!

  Fast-food prices way up the past decade. Low-income consumers are starting to crack.
Posted by: LevelUP - 05-02-2024, 06:07 AM - Forum: Off Topic - Replies (6)

Change in average menu prices for ten popular items over the past decade, per FinanceBuzz:

1. McDonald’s: +100%
2. Popeyes: +86%
3. Taco Bell: +81%
4. Chipotle: +75%
5. Jimmy John’s: +62%
6. Arby’s, Wendy’s, Burger King, Chick-fil-A: +55%
7. Panera Bread: +54%
8. Starbucks, Subway: +39%

A little over a decade ago, Subway had their $5 footlong deal. You could get McD's hash brows for 2 for $1.

Today, a 5lb bag of potatoes is $3. You can buy 10 frozen hash brown patties for $3.50.

A McD's Quarter-Pound w/cheese meal costs $12. I could make this myself in 5 minutes with Rally's fries for $3.

Fast-food prices surged faster than inflation the past decade.

Just had this pop up on my LinkedIn feed:

TESU EdD

The first cohort begins 01 July. I might have considered this program, since I had a good experience getting my BA at TESU, but alas I've already started the CBE EdD at South College.

Question Coursera Changed Their Trial Period Policy?
Posted by: Aikuroa - 05-01-2024, 06:21 PM - Forum: Free Courses and Certificates and Good Deals - Replies (12)

Hello everyone,

I recently completed a Google Certificate on Coursera within the 7-day trial period and received my certificate without any issues. However, when I tried to do the same recently, Coursera informed me that I needed to wait until the end of the 7 days, which would require me to pay the monthly fee. Did they change their policies?

I also heard about a $1/month offer for Coursera, but I can't seem to find the link for it. Has anyone else experienced this change in the trial period policy? Additionally, if anyone has information about the $1/month offer or where to find it, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you for your help!

  Newbie Advice Needed BA. What CLEPs Can I Take?
Posted by: kiick18 - 05-01-2024, 04:46 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (5)

Hello all,

I’m new to the forum so please excuse me if this is in the wrong place. I’m VERY new to all of this and I’m trying to do as much research as I can!

I decided to go back to school to get a BA in Psychology. I already have an AA in Liberal Arts. The school I am planning to go to is SUNY Empire (my union pays for it). All my credits will transfer over but I would like to earn more through CLEP before I officially enroll. I’m working full time so I’m trying to shorten my time.

My main question is does anyone have any suggestions on what CLEP exams I can or should take? I don’t want to take a CLEP exam and it would be a waste of time because I already earned credit through my AA. I pasted below all the classes I’ve taken during my AA run. If I can earn credits elsewhere as well I’ll be more than open to suggestions.

  University of Maine System Transfer Equivalencies
Posted by: colonelcamp - 05-01-2024, 03:01 PM - Forum: UMPI - University of Maine at Presque Isle Discussion - Replies (9)

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to share this link that I hadn't previously seen anywhere on our forum. Apologies if I'm late to the party.

https://mainestreetcs.maine.edu/psp/CSPR..._GUEST.GBL?

I clicked on "Transfer Courses or Test Credit to the Univ of Maine System" at the bottom of the page.

On the next page I clicked on the "S" and then selected Sophia from the list. It then shows all the Sophia courses that are accepted. At least I think so.

Not sure if this applies to YourPace. Maybe one of the experts on here can confirm. 

Thx!

  Will WGU ever accept international students?
Posted by: shaikhmustak - 05-01-2024, 12:44 PM - Forum: WGU - Western Governors University Discussion - Replies (7)

I am from Iceland, who wants to get a bachelor's degree in computer science. Unfortunately, In Iceland or In Europe there are no good online university choose; only International university, which according to some people sucks. Does anyone know, if WGU will accept international students? Or, will they ever except international students? (EU students)
