Hi,

Your Location: Belgium
Your Age: 25
What kind of degree do you want?: BACS
Current Regional Accredited Credits:

Unknown, awaiting verification from spantran

Current ACE, CLEP, or NCCRS Credits: None

Any certifications or military experience? No

Budget: As cheap as possible, I'm fine spending +/- $5k
Commitments: Full-time job, no other commitments.
Dedicated time to study: On average 4 hours per weeknight, more on the weekends so totalling around 35 hours per week I'd estimate.
Timeline: As fast as possible, ideally within 6 months.
Tuition assistance/reimbursement: My workplace does not partner with any institutions but I may be able to use some of my training budget to partly reimburse the studies, max $2k reimbursement if I can use the entire training budget.

I'm an international student and am pretty sure OMSCS will not accept my 3-year degree as being equivalent to a U.S. 4-year degree. At least according to my own government the degree sits between an associate's and an academic bachelors (which is 4-year equivalent). I'm still waiting for spantran to complete my course-by-course evaluation, so I can go on to apply to TESU to get a BACS to fulfill this 4-year degree requirement.

My previous degree is CS - Applied, meaning I didn't get any math whatsoever (I know ridiculous). I did have programming, sw architecture, OS (which included a little bit of DS&A). I know GaTech admissions likes to see accredited courses for e.g. DS&A. Hence my plan is now to do the flat-rate 16 credit term, taking:

• MAT-2700 - Discrete Mathematics
  
• COS-2410 - Data Structures
  
• LIB-4950  - Liberal Arts Capstone
  
• "filler" courses amounting to 7 more credits
  

Hello all, I am considering the DBA program of Paris Business School here:

https://www.psbedu.paris/en/programs/executive-dba

- It is online
- Costs around 32K Euro
- Triple accredited
- 3 years in duration


My questions:

1- How good is Paris Business School in general? Are they one of the top schools in France or Europe?

2- Would it allow me to get a teaching position in the future in the US (just in case I wanted to)? or they don't recognize or give much attention for none-US doctorate there?

3- What other business schools offer same online, accreditation and price are there to compare with?


Thanks!

So I signed up for The American Dream Academy. Now I have only until end of April to finish them. I'm going on a trip a in couple weeks. I'm wondering is there a way to work on TADA offline like on an airplane by downloading content? Just wanted to ask. 

Also, is there a way to work on the certs on a mobile app? I will not be bringing my laptop on the trip.

Has anyone taken the 500 and 600 series classes?  What was your strategy for studying?  So far with BUS 501, I've watched the videos and gone through the study guide.  I attempted the final quiz and fell just short <-Using that to study for retake.  Hopefully their test bank is not huge.  I may see if someone has uploaded to Quizlet.  The goal is to prepare for an MBA.  Thanks

Hi Everyone,

Short time lurker, first time poster. I have been researching online degrees and stumbled upon this amazing forum and have been building my path to a bachelor’s degree ever since.  Humbly asking for help to make sure I got this right. 

It looks like UMPI’s YourPace Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration – Project Management & Information Systems is the right choice for me.

I visited the UMPI’s General Education Roadmap and BABA Project Management wiki and built this spreadsheet below:

Transfer Credits Pathway Spreadsheet

Rough draft, bear with me.

I understand that unlimited credits can be transferred to UMPI, but only 90 credits can count towards your degree.

Questions:

1. If this is the case, is there any reason to complete more than 90 in Sophia/Study/Coursera?
   
2. Does this mean I need to take more Gen Ed, Project Management, or Business Administration classes at UMPI and add in more of the General Electives to Sophia/Study/Coursera?
   
3. Ultimately, does this pathway look like it will work/best optimized or should I talk to a UMPI advisor before starting this journey? (I understand that they want you to apply right away)
   
4. What’s a realistic timeline for a working, childless adult?
   

It's already March! Wow, time flies by so quickly when you're busy...

What educational goals do you have for this year, are you planning anything?

There are still a few cheapies or freebies I want to finish for Coursera/EdX.

Hmm, anyone come across PayPal asking for ID and address confirmation before?  I read online and this seems like a normal thing they do.  I don't mind, but never actually had to do this until yesterday, so I took a picture of my drivers license and my college transcript, sent it in... Within minutes, my account restrictions were lifted.  I don't know why so many people online rather 'end' their PayPal account over that.  Maybe because it's a privacy, personal info issue, but I think it's like a bank or credit union, places that require your ID before they give/take money from you...

Having finished all the transfer credits (93), I am finally ready to apply to UMPI. Link to my Degree Plan.
I have just now filled the form and I expect to be contacted soon.

As an international student based in Italy, I have two questions: 

1. Do I need a US phone number? Can everything be done by email?

2. To get my High School Diploma evaluated by WES (Document-by-Document Evaluation), should I buy WES ICAP or is the WES Basic package enough?
Alternatively, since it now seems that UMPI accepts other equivalency providers, is there a better deal?

Thank you.

Hi,
I noticed some users have a signature when they reply the post. But When I go to the user profile, I didn't find a place to create or modify this configuration
Could any of you show me how to do it? Thanks

I first learned about the 1 credit ARW419 TEEX Disaster Management for Water & Wastewater Utilities course from: https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Fr..._of_Credit

I finished the course and emailed them to get issued my Credly badge issued like I have been for all the free TEEX cybersecurity courses and I got a response that there the course was not ACE approved? (response attached)


I responded back to a link to the ACE National Guide entry for the badge: https://www.acenet.edu/National-Guide/Pa...65f38bf0e1
The entry does state that the classroom version of the course is the one approved for credit.

I haven't received a response yet. Has anyone been able to get this badge after completing the online version of this course?
