Good day
Has anybody come across these online universities for doctoral programs who operate from Malaysia?
Manipal GlobalNXT University (GlobalNXT) -
https://globalnxt.edu.my/programs/doctor...istration/
Universal Business Academy (UBA) -
https://universalbusinessacademy.com/edba/
Jesselton University College (Jesselton) -
https://jesselton.edu.my/about-jc/juc-accreditations
UBA offers a EDBA degree in partnership with Jesselton University College that can be completed in 12 months at a total cost of MYR 41688 (about US $9000). Jesselton has the following accreditations per their website: CHEA, ACBSP & ASIC amongst others. I have not as yet verified these claims. I have attached their doctoral program brochure.
GlobalNXT has a year program, which could possibly be reduced to two years subject to potential credit transfers from earlier studies and business experience. The program costs less than US 7000.
Any views or comments will be welcomed.
Thank you.
Johann

Manipal GlobalNXT University has been talked about on the board and the sister board. The other two I would leave out for now until they do get the accreditation you mentioned... Most of the time, I read the same as you, but when I clicked onto the acbspsearch.org webpage, the institution for Jesselton didn't come up, I went to the link and noticed they're just a member, not an accredited institution. So, leave that in the backup pile until they do get the proper accreditations on their webpage corrected...

CHEA is not an accreditor. ACBSP is only a programmatic accreditor, not institutional. ASIC is not a legitimate accreditor for institutions as they are not authorized by the U.K. Government to perform it but are somehow getting away with it.

Thank you for the reply and proposal.

Because they do not grant recognition to universities, nor the degrees they issue. They are more like an ISO standard or BBB listing. YMMV.
