  Online bachelor's degree for students fluent in Japanese
Posted by: archsvt - 04-02-2026, 01:02 PM - Forum: General Education-Related Discussion - Replies (2)

Okayama University of Science (a private university, not to be confused with Okayama University) is offering an online bachelor's degree in Information Science and Engineering, with the caveat that the entire program is done in Japanese. Still, it seems open to the idea of foreigners taking the course, although application documents do have to be mailed to the office (including proof of Japanese fluency).

While this degree will not be attractive to most users in this forum, it might be useful for Japanese diaspora abroad or to anyone looking to improve their Japanese while doing a bachelor's.

  KAIROS D.MIN., other programs no longer FAFSA-funded
Posted by: MFG - 04-01-2026, 10:13 AM - Forum: Doctorate Degree Discussion - Replies (3)

Kairos University will end FAFSA participation at least in D. Min. and other graduate programs. Officials  informally cited increasing mandated bureaucratic costs burdensome to a small program.

The University is accredited and focuses on a low graduate tuition to begin with for its primarily religious-oriented and Seminary students.

  Applied to a Doctorate at UNISA. What am I in for if admitted?
Posted by: EliEverIsAHero - 04-01-2026, 07:24 AM - Forum: Doctorate Degree Discussion - Replies (10)

I've applied to UNISA's PhD program in Public Policy and International Affairs. 

My most cost-effective alternative option would be to take a brick-and-mortar Public Administration PhD in my hometown/current city of residence on an employer-provided tuition waiver I've access to, but that would keep me locked into a specific employment track and geographic location potentially longer than I'd like; said program is also front-loaded with coursework that veers a bit sideways from my intended research topic, and thus not quite ideal. So UNISA seems like a more viable option for that reason, as well as in that it is more "portable" and can withstand any changes in employment or location I experience. 

That said, I've also heard quite a bit about UNISA doctorates being a test of patience or difficult to complete via high bureaucratic hurdles and limited scholarly guidance, via this and the sister forum. How accurate is that reputation?

  Degree planning - Environmental Science-ish?
Posted by: namwen - 03-31-2026, 05:06 PM - Forum: Degree Planning Advice - Replies (8)

Howdy, folks!

I am looking to obtain a degree to satisfy the state licensure requirements in Texas. 

Requirements: "A Bachelor's degree in architecture, engineering, physical science, or natural science."

I'm well entrenched in the building science, environmental consulting, remediation, and general construction nerd world. If I could stay in that, it would be amazing. I'm open for suggestions. I generally hate biology and so forth. If I can avoid it, that would be amazing. 

Honestly, I need to check the box so I can become licensed work on downsizing my operation to a more comfortable and efficient level.

Your Age: 50
What kind of degree do you want?: BS in the fastest/easiest pathway
Current Regional Accredited Credits: like 74 on an Excelsior transcript and a BSBA from Cal Coast

  Started Woolf Masters in AI [Udacity]
Posted by: Lightorb333 - 03-30-2026, 12:39 PM - Forum: Graduate School Discussion - Replies (39)

Loving it so far, clean interface, the videos are downloadable, and it's very organized. The videos usually range from 3 to 10 minutes, though sometimes they hit 20 minutes. 

If you have any questions, let me know! Time is tight right now, so you might have to wait a bit for a reply. 

I started using Udacity to upskill, so I said might as well do the masters program! I didn't do the credit exemption because I wanted to do all the courses.
