Affordable onlien history degree (BA and MA)

[Bonaccorso_di_Novara]

Try reading through the beginners guide that is in the section above where you posted.  It will show you places to get quick, inexpensive credits.  There are many credit providers, Straighterline, Study.com, Sophia, etc. that you can take classes through fairly inexpensively to put toward your degree.  When you get some credit under your belt, you should apply to one of the Big 3 colleges: Thomas Edison State University, Charter Oak State College, or Excelsior colleges.  These are colleges that will accept the most transfer credit.  You only have to take two classes there.  They are expensive, but it is MUCH less expensive than just taking all of your classes through one university.  

I have included a link to the wiki https://degreeforum.miraheze.org/wiki/Degree_Forum_Wiki
There are examples of History degree plans that you can look through.

Do you currently have any credits?  If you do, then you should list them.  Someone may be able to advise you how to best use them toward a degree.

Most of all, I suggest you spend some time reading the posts in this forum.  You will get a lot of information that way.

Good Luck!

Thank you! I'll explore this option for sure, those websites sound interesting. What makes me concerned, however, is that I'm not from the US, so continuing education there is really expensive for me (+add housing, car, and so on, and if I'll be able to get student visa), so it might not work.

So answer about credits at this point is obvious - I don't have them. I have masters degree in comp science in my country, that's it.

Of course at first I checked opportunities to get a degree here, but local education system is different, notable for lack of flexibility, so here the only real option is 6 years full time study, which is not an option for me. And local online degrees are considered to be worthless even within the coutnry, not to mention abroad (I'm gooa leave the country in few years).

And I will definitely read the form, thanks! Now I explored it only briefly.
