WGU Alternative for non US residents?
#1
I completed my TESC BSBA Gen Mgt degree in 2014 and since then, afaik, WGU has not opened its admissions door to students outside the US -  with exception given to US embassy staff and those living in the US overseas territories...

I was wondering whether there are other RA universities similar to WGU in pricing model. I am particularly interested in IT and related programs. I don't even mind taking an undergraduate degree..

EDIT: I am aware about the Uopeople MSIT program and I am looking into this as well...

UoPeople may get RA status soon, so that's good.

For specifically an IT degree (and not comp sci), Purdue Global and NAU might be options. Both of these are reputed to have a lot of writing, though. https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Co...d_Programs

For Bachelors level, have a look at the Purdue Global and UMASS Global options, they have a few to select from... For the Masters level, I suggest sticking with Purdue Global for their MSIT degree. NAU is an option, but I heard it's not that appealing, both in content and course offerings...

Thanks for the heads-up. UoPeople would perhaps be one of the cheapest RA IF they get the accreditation. Wao, definitely putting them on my list.
