My husband has a partial scholarship for James Madison University. He wants to get his M.Ed. in Teacher Leadership fully online asynchronous, since he can only do online learning not in campus. He is in-state but travels often. 

Program link: JMU M.Ed. in Teacher Leadership https://www.jmu.edu/coe/ltle/teachlead_masters.shtml

A little about him:
• Bachelor’s Degree: Lib Studies from a regionally accredited school.
• Experience: Teaching at a trade school and experience in tech, business, and leadership.
• Eligibility: The program is meant for public school teachers, but JMU confirmed he can apply since it benefits him in teaching.
• Family ties: His father graduated from JMU, so he has personal ties to the school and want to be an alumni. .
• Prior graduate experience: He earned a MAOL from UMPI last year. 

Goal:
• He wants to finish as quickly as possible.
• JMU allows up to 10 graduate-level transfer credits. Since he could transfer 10 credits, he would have 20 credits left, which he could finish in two semesters.
• He is considering University of the People (UoPeople) or similar affordable, accredited programs for potential transfer credits to save money and accelerate graduation. He anticipates to start next year due to scheduling but would prefer to take these grad courses if it transfers.

Anyone know of an applied CS Master's with no GRE requirement for someone with a 3.0 GPA in Software Development?   Don't have the math for a theory heavy CS and needs to be a program that a large financial institution would consider "acceptable" to be enrolled in for an internship so nothing piecemeal will work.  TIA

My daughter (19) is wrapping up her last term of college. She will be graduating from TESU with an AS in Bus Admin and a BA in Psych. (Yes - gobs of alt credit thx to this group and free PSEO from our state). She wants to further her studies, but never had any intention of pursuing psych further. In other words, she never wanted to be a therapist etc.

She took a break for the last eight months and participated in the Disney College Program, which she loved. She learned that she loved hospitality, and we are wondering what to do next. She is considering an eCornell certificate in Hospitality Management, but could earn an additional associate's or bachelor's (or master's???) in Hospitality. 

Any thoughts or ideas are welcome. Her theory is to earn now, while she still lives at home and doesn't have the added expense of rent, car payment, etc ...

She prefers online learning and, while low cost is important, she has considerable savings and is not opposed to spending it for the right program.

Hi,

Since I'm not very familiar with the U.S. education system, I was hoping someone could give me some insights about the following:

My ultimate goal is to earn an ABET-accredited degree in electrical engineering fully online, at the lowest possible cost.

I found an online undergraduate Electrical Engineering "upper-level two-year program" at Stony Brook University.
More info: https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonline/

I read their requirements and it seems I have a chance of getting in, because my previous degree is not related to Electrical Engineering at all (it's a B.A. in English). (https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonl...ns/faq.php)

According to their admission requirements (https://www.stonybrook.edu/commcms/eeonl.../index.php), the following courses need to be completed beforehand:

College Calculus I

College Calculus II

College Calculus III

Introduction to Differential Equations

An English composition course equivalent to WRT 102 (U.S. academic writing course), with at least a grade of C

My question is: are there any recommended (preferably inexpensive) online courses I could take as an international student to fulfill these prerequisites?

I came across some very low-cost online classes at New Mexico Junior College, but I’m not sure if they would be accepted.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

After avoiding nearly all political news stories since April, I finally gave in and clicked on the Cracker Barrel rebrand controversy.

Was it just Republicans crying again over some minor nonsense? Yes. But was there more to it? Maybe.

Interestingly, this ended up becoming a rare issue that seemed to unite people on both sides of the political spectrum.

The décor in the new restaurant design feels pretty bland and lacking in character. Do we really need ten or more rolling pins on the wall? Art should convey some kind of emotion. This conveys nothing to me.



Personally, I’ve eaten at Cracker Barrel before and it’s fine, but Waffle House is still my favorite.

Thoughts?

Hi Everyone,

Would you choose Acacia University at Arizona or Guglielmo Marconi University to do your doctorate degree?
Both university partner with Westford.

I prefer more on Guglielmo Marconi University because it is recognised by the Italian Ministry of Education. However, when I look at the university website, I couldn't find anything about doctorate degree. Will the Italian Ministry of Education also recognised their doctorate degree?

For Acacia University, it is only a NA university. But it is a U.S. university. So there won't be any problem about the degree.

Hi GUYS,
   
I may have asked a question similar to this,
but I am still confused.

If someone gets a Pell Grant for $7k+,
Does that mean for example,
that if you take 12 credits
at UMPI in 1 session for $1800,
mean you will get the full
Pell Grant?

Can you explain this a little?
Thank you!!!!

Anyone do anything remotely close to what this person has done? Using Biomarkers and all to determine your fitness and health level?  I should try something like this as I am getting older.  I am definitely interested in this and want to work on that part I may be lacking in (fitness or health wise).
