Having lived in Germany with USA military, and seen the ease of access to USA bases by German military ... out of interest, have you looked at what is available on USA bases at their Education centers?

This is a completely random train of thought, and I'm not saying you would definitely have access to education stuff on a USA military base, but from what I have seen, I really wouldn't be surprised. It's something I would seriously look at if you're close enough.

Ramstein is the "All singing/all dancing" place to go, but there are lots of others dotted around. I mention Ramstein as a good place to call as they will have a German section there. Google for numbers and call.

You are German military, I'm thinking reciprocal agreements will be happening as USA military can retire within Germany.
Worth a call, via the German contact.
They may let you at least CLEP/DSST on a USA base .... again, just a random thought.

This is a very interesting thought. Unfortunately, non-U.S. military members/dependents are not allowed to take CLEP tests on base or become a student at one of their four Universities (University of Maryland, Central Texas College, University of Oklahoma, Embry Riddle Worldwide). I called Ramstein and asked them and that's what they said. I know I can enter the U.S. base in Baumholder any time with my German military ID but apparently I cannot become a student. I checked out their programs and I am not really interested in any of them anyway. Of course, if a program would make it likely for me to realize my goals I would not hesitate to enroll. Embry Riddle offers a 100% online B.S. degree in Engineering Technology but I don't think it would be much better than Grantham, would it? Besides, the program curriculum at Grantham is more focused on computer hardware instead of mechanical engineering.

Thanks for the post!
I'll continue looking for affordable master degrees / hybrid Universities in CE.
