Most of the info on catalogs are the same as previous years, it's the policies area you want to review, as I don't think the link above has anything with international students and entry requirements for Citizens or PR like my email indicated back in 2020...

Sure they are. They say they are eligible. I'll let you know for sure in a month.

Yes, I think there was an update earlier in the week, hopefully they keep up the good work and allow more people access to this... Hmm, hoping other WV institutions follow through as well, thus providing more options...

Good News!
Nancy: Pierpont can now admit international students but cannot sponsor a student visa.

I am interested in enrolling in the Pierpont BOG AAS Program, as i study in degreeforum, Pierpont BOG AAS Program is meet with my budget, but I am also open to attending any online accredited institution. My primary goal is to pursue the most efficient path towards obtaining a bachelor's degree, as this will significantly broaden my career opportunities in the workplace. It is crucial to me that the program I choose is accredited by the relevant state or local government authority of the college's location. I have been informed by Malaysia's MQA that validation is only recognized for programs accredited by the state or local government of the college's location, which is essential for recognition in my home country.

If you have enough credits, you don't need a HS diploma or equivalent.

Now that international students can attain BOG degrees, if time is very short and the student can speak foreign languages, Pierpont accepts the full ACE reccomended credit for dozens of languages if you take the actfl exam.
They have different exams for arabic variants, so if someone understands Libyan and Standard Arabic or maybe Farsi and Arabic then they could knock up to 24 ACE credits in one go with two oral exams. I did the Spanish oral computer exam and it was super easy. It asks you questions like what are your hobbies or what kind of movies you like for you to answer. Takes less than 40 minutes and the score appears in your account just a few days later. Sending the exam badge to credly is very streamlined. Actfl oral exams cost 165 usd and reading or listening 108. I found the Spanish reading exam to be quite difficult, I only scored upper intermediate I think.
