12-Month Master's Programs - HoosierStateStudent - 01-29-2016

Hello, all! This is my first time posting on this site. I have visited this forum more than once in the past looking for information, so I appreciate all of your help.

I will be finishing my BS at COSC in July/August (whenever the summer session ends). My goal is to eventually enroll in University of North Texas' distance MA in Applied Anthropology program. Unfortunately, I will not be able to enter that program until Fall of 2017. That means I will have exactly one year of no school between finishing my BS and starting at UNT.

Here's my question to you all: what are some 12-month master's program in which I could enroll and complete before I begin my master's at UNT? I'd like it to be affordable, of course. I would probably prefer the degree to be in one of these fields: international relations/development/studies, history, political science, philosophy, marketing, strategic management/leadership, public relations, sociology, communications, human resources. I realize a one-year MBA program is the easiest to find, as I have found numerous. If at all possible, I would like to avoid getting an MBA, but I will resort to that if I need to.

Thank you all in advance for chiming in!

I believe WGU has a management degree; it's self-paced. Hodges has a self-paced MPA (Upower). You should also look at Capella's flexpath options.
