Hello everybody,

Thank you for all of your contributions with assisting members to get their degree. After the recent changes at UMPI regarding Sophia, I just want to verify my plan before proceeding. Attached is my degree plan and a simple alternative credit sheet after checking the UMPI DB and the forum. My plan is to transfer in the Gen ED and do most of my major with UMPI. Some uncertain transfer is 2D, 3A, and BUS 150. Please advise if any changes are needed. Is the Coursera course worth doing compared to UMPI? What is the speed timeline difference if using Sophia versus doing UMPI? 

Very Respectfully,
AG101

I'm looking for a doctorate in psychology that has no campus visits or clinicals/internships. I need an academic psychology degree not a licensure or counseling. Actual psychology to be used in academia. I cannot travel even for a short term campus visit. Doesn't matter how long the degree takes.  
I will take any and all options presented to explore and hopefully nail down one ASAP.

(Yes I'm starting to second guess that DA in English Pedagogy and hence looking for something in Psychology to be in cohesion with my other degrees)

My daughter is 18, just graduated high school and plans to ultimately get a Masters in Library Science from University of Maryland. She is taking 4 classes at our local community college to establish a high GPA (to be able to potentially qualify for scholarships for her masters. The courses she is taking is: English Composition, Cultural Identity in America- Race, Class, Gender and Society, Ceramics I and Intro to Sociology
She wants to utilize all of the available non-traditional credit sources to test out of her Bachelor's degree as quickly as possible. She plans to get her degree from TESU. I checked the wiki and saw a variety of different degree plans. Are those up to date? She would love to have a major, but is fine just getting a Liberal Studies degree if it's significantly faster. 
If anyone can point me in the direction of a road map that is current and up to date, I'd be endlessly appreciative! Thanks so much.

If you had to choose between the Harvard Extension School’s ALM in Management and the UIUC iMSM program, which one would you go for and why? I’m weighing both in terms of learning experience, recognition, and future opportunities. Would love to hear your thoughts!r

I know this question has probably come up before, but I’ve been reading through so many pages and posts that I’m honestly getting overwhelmed and more confused than when I started.

I’m really interested in the ENEB double master’s program. I like that it’s self-paced and seems really affordable, which works great for me since I’m working full time. But my main concern is whether this degree can actually be used or evaluated as a master’s in the U.S. My goal is to be able to say that I have a master’s degree, especially since I’m working toward a leadership role in healthcare and that credential could really help. I’m not expecting Ivy League recognition, but I do want something that at least counts and could be respected by employers.

If it’s just for personal development and doesn’t really carry weight professionally, I’m not sure it’s worth the time or money even if it is low cost. Speaking of which, does anyone know if there’s a cheaper way to get the ENEB program than what’s being advertised right now?

Also, if anyone here knows of a legit online master’s program in business or healthcare administration that is affordable, accepted in the U.S., and ideally flexible or self-paced, that is below 10k and achieved in 4 months or lesser, I’d love some guidance. I know this has been talked about before but there’s just so much out there that it’s starting to feel like information overload. I just need it for work pay increase too. Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I’m a hospital director focused on the management side of operations. It’s always been a dream of mine to earn a degree from Harvard, especially with the long-term goal of moving into higher leadership roles in healthcare.

I’m currently looking into the ALM in Management – Health Care at Harvard Extension, and I’d love to connect with anyone who has gone through the program or is currently enrolled.

My main priorities are speed, flexibility, and affordability — I work full-time and long hours, so I’m trying to be smart about this. A few things I’d really appreciate help with:

• What’s the fastest possible timeline to complete the ALM realistically?
  
• Has anyone successfully transferred in 8 credits (2 courses) to save on cost and time? I’m considering ASU Universal Learner and UMass Global.
  
• Can most of the coursework be done online, and are there any non-proctored course options?
  
• For those who’ve finished the degree — how do you typically present it on LinkedIn or résumés? I know it’s through Harvard Extension, but I’d still love to reflect the Harvard name professionally.
  
• Any tips for scholarships, financial aid, or using FAFSA?
  

I completed the CompTIA Data+ and AWS Cloud Practioner at WGU, getting class credit after I passed the Certification exams. If I switch from WGU to TESU, do I need to tell TESU about the certs, or will I get the same credit for transferring the WGU class? 

Also, when you apply at TESU, and send all your transcripts from all you sources, how many different majors can you apply to? At TESU, there seemed to be 3-4 majors that looked interesting, but I would probably go with the one that I had the least remaining classes to do. I am hoping I can specificy at least 3 potential Majors when I tried to apply.

I have a question. 
What bachelors degree can be completed using Shophia, study.com and Coursera.
 I am thinking of doing BA computer science or BS CIS or BS information technology. I would like to only take the capstone and SOS1100 at TESU
Is this possible and is there a guide to follow?
