Liberty University
#1
Liberty University has a bachelors degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. Looks very interesting and very hackable. Anyone have any knowledge or experience with Liberty University?

They're a tad expensive, I would go a different route if possible. 30 credits at that price range of $400 = 12,000 for the last year...
That's twice the price of TESU or three of Excelsior. Link: https://www.liberty.edu/online/tuition-and-fees/

Liberty University is really putting together some great online programs; they are the only one in the country that does an online PhD in History (something I had thought of pursuing and searched far and wide for one, but changed my mind).  However, I'd carefully consider whether or not you'd want Liberty on your resume.
BA - History, Arizona State University
MS - Organizational Leadership, Johns Hopkins University (in progress)

Yeah but, does UMPI have a football team. Liberty University football players are high achievers on the field and in the classroom. Big Grin Big Grin

Any UMPI distance education students lead an NFL team to a Super Bowl victory?

I don't give a flying hoot about a football team. I never cared about college sports even when I was 20 attending in person classes on campus. I couldn't tell you what sports teams any of the colleges I've attended had. And I've been to a lot of colleges.

So, you won't be filling out a bracket for March Madness?

Liberty University's Women's basketball team, the Lady Flames, has been very competitive for many years

Also of note, Liberty University's Ice Hockey team is always among the topped ranked collegiate teams. Smile

Liberty is mostly online now, I think they'll compare similarly to other institutions that are online such as UMGC, the main campus for University of Maryland has a football team I think, so other UMGC students who are in favor of a football team would cheer for the team on the main campus. Anyways, going the UMGC route would also yield a $10K bachelors if you can transfer in the max. They have discounts if you're from Asia or Europe, at $250/credit undergrad vs $499 out of state.
