Foreign degree conundrum.

Whether or not her Romanian degree is "legit", a shiny new degree from UMPI might be a good option. Whether or not she does have to start over completely from scratch, it'd only be about $3-5k for a degree if she can finish in 6-8 months.
Hey there. She would ideally look into either the fields of health care or education and I think she wants to be able to transfer some of her existing education credits over to avoid starting from absolute scratch. You would think her existing degree would be able to satisfy some of the electives and general education credits at least, even if she still had to do the requirements for whatever major she chose. Based on what she is like, and what her areas of interest are I don't think an online option will work for her, but we do have some Brick and Mortar options the next town over. 

Another option that I threw at her was to try to get her bachelor's recognized in Canada even if the degree isn't employable to allow her access to a master's degree of some type. Not sure if that would be possible either at this point.
