Dear All, first post here,
I am from Canada, need your expert advise how to complete Bachelor's degree.
I applied transfer credit evaluation to two places, Peru State College (regionally accredited) and Penn Foster College ( nationally accredited). Both places I got 80+ credits in transfer towards "Bachelor of Business Management" program. Please help me to chose right path
1- Peru State College
Regionally Accredited Degree, I would able to get into further studies in case if I want to study Masters in Canada.
Not self-paced, I need around 1.5 years to complete the degree total costing aprox $8000-9000.
2- Penn Foster College
Nationally Accredited, what i have read on different places, almost 0 chances to get into Master degree in Canada using a Nationally Accredited Degree. ( I am in way to change career, I might consider Western Governors or American Public for Master in Criminal Justice)
Self-paces, I might finish whole degree/rest of credits into 4-5 months, total costing anywhere $4000-5000.
I am living in main city Toronto, luckily found this forum but sad news is, there is no CLEP center in Toronto. There is one private school who administers CELP exam but for its own students only and guess what? women only.
I am 32 years old, on a stage where I need a Bachelor/Master degree as quick as possible, affordable but of course, recognizable that I wont have any problems in future. Please add your comments, opinion, I am really confuse what I should do.
Thanks a lot in advance. Cheers!
