Admission to US Masters degrees through ENEB?

[yhmc]

All you have to do is finish an ENEB Master's program, get the Isabel degree, get a foreign credential evaluation from ECE as they are known to evaluate ENEB degrees as equivalent to US RA Bachelor's degrees. Then submit the evaluation with your application to a US Master's program.

As for the test-based degree, that's just junk. 50 questions is not sufficient for a Master's, and now that Isabel no longer awards their degree unless you take the real Master's course where you actually do real work, you would be relegated only to the ENEB diploma which may not get favorable evaluation results. I say, it's best to do the work and earn the Isabel degree just so you won't get any surprises come evaluation time.

A friend earned a degree from the University of the People (UOP) and was accepted into a regionally accredited (RA) school graduate program. I am unsure if it was because UOP is nationally accredited and a candidate for RA or if the school accepted NA bachelor's degrees. There are definitely RA graduate schools that accept NA degrees. You need to search around for something that fits your goals.

I believe the school was ACE.edu, which accepted his UOP degree, but don't quote me. This really is a golden opportunity to look for an RA graduate program that will accept you. I wouldn't taint my resume with questionable foreign degrees. Please keep us posted and congratulations on your upcoming degree at UOP!

He's just trying to get accepted into another program, he's probably not interested in listing the foreign degree on a resume. I agree with you that he should just approach some schools. The issue of getting a degree from an 'NA' school accepted at an 'RA' school is not nearly the issue it was 15-20 years ago despite what you'll hear on some message boards.

"now that Isabel no longer awards their degree unless you take the real Master's course where you actually do real work"

Do you have any reference? I did not find anything about this.

Earlier this year (end of 2024) Isabel was still awarding degrees for people who took the exams. If it's true then it can only be brand-new info geared towards 2025 graduates. I haven't seen anyone mention it in the Master Thread nor have I seen it pointed out in any ENEB advertising. Trust me, if this were true the Master Thread would be exploding and everyone who already had Isabel degrees would be scrambling to get them evaluated by ECE as fast as possible.

What did develop over 2024 is that you now only get an Isabel diploma if you pay for hard copies (or happen to catch degree registration during a special sale when it's included), regardless of how you finish your courses.

It's so confusing about the new way ahead with the UI1 degrees.  If have anyone rec'd a UI1 degree for any of the new major programs this year and DID receive a UI1 degree, how did it come?  Email as they had done in the past or as a download in the student portal?
