Basically, I won't be adding these Masters to my resume or CV, it's for personal enrichment and for learning subject matter I'm not fully immersed in but I have much interest in... Essentially, this is the same as what I currently do with IT certs that are paid for by the company, cheap/easy/fast as most of them are, it's still helpful for me to take as it provides a review or preview of information that I am looking into. Another example is me taking other courses such as StraighterLine, I took over 100+ credits with that medium as I wanted to learn each course they had to offer. When Sophia.org had their freebies, I took everything that wasn't offered at SL and/or didn't duplicate credits I had, some where repetitive but I still took it for review.
The learning material provided and subject matter retained is much more affordable than my previous education prior to 2015, I mean I paid so much out of pocket ($6600 or something close to that) for local/private education towards an IT Diploma at a private for-profit that had the most ads ever, they shut down the same year I was attending their courses. That school had 19 years history and actually one of the ones I had been eyeing for a long time. Further to that, I took courses at CIE/World College towards their BEET and BCIS, I was at like 18 courses in or something, these were the ones that can be applied to either or both degrees, then they lost NA accreditation! LOL, I looked at Grantham U but they were too expensive.
In fact, the total ENEB costs would be less than the cost of 1 course I took at JIU (Jones International University - RA and I thought would be the biggest competitor to WGU or U of Phoenix) that closed as well, I was taking a graduate cert in Business before I had my Bachelors, I was in the middle of the course when they mentioned they're ceasing operations. I mean, the 3 credit course was $1500, oh crap, the horror! Fast forward to now, I'm taking Business/IT certs as they come to me cheap/easy/fast and any other credentials, just like the "Pay what you can" certs offered by a few universities with executive education divisions (I voluntarily paid $100 for the Cert in Leadership in Turbulent Times, $25 each course, some people had paid more, some got the full scholarship)...
Let see, I paid $249 for the MBA & Big Data and $217 for the Digital Marketing and E-Commerce. I purposely waited for a "deal" as the regular price is $299 for the MBA & Masters and $249 for just one of them. However, for those who are looking to purchase, this is how I would do it now. I FORGOT that Groupon is one of the companies that offers cash rebates if you use Ratuken, I could have had 4% cash back, plus, if I referred myself to Groupon (using gmail and the period), I get $10 or was it $25 referral discount? Doh! So, wait for the $249 and $217 special, then pay with Ratuken after you refer yourself...
Hmm, so, I just got word back from them, my assumption is correct, if I complete all 30 courses within the post graduate option, I get all 10 for the price of 6. And if I do all 40 courses for the Masters, I get all 11 of them for the price of 8. I don't think I'll be going for that many, but just wanted to validate my assumption, maybe I might do it just for the heck of it, being the first to finish all their courses, hmm x2, I think I want to spend some more time on Study.com UL courses, they're awesome, I learn and retain much more info than I did with StraighterLine, but then again SL was all Lower Level...

Dear Bryan,
Your numbers are right and your proposal is sound. All in all, since common subjects are validated when passed in any training program, your suggestion makes sense, given that you are keen on collecting degrees
Considering this, please confirm how many training programs and what kind you would need to have all courses available. Then, if you purchase them all, you can be enrolled in all training programs, and eventually get all certifications possible, as long as you overcome subjects.
We’ll be looking forward to provide you with a link to cover this amount of courses.
Update: If you have purchased the voucher already, please send us a screen shot of such together with your full name, so that we can proceed with the enrollment accordingly.
Once you are a student of ENEB, you can enroll in additional Master programs for the price of 140 EUR each - therefore, as soon as you have enrollled with the purchased voucher, you can possibly add as many programs as you wish (for 140 EUR per Master).
We remain at your disposal for any further information.
Kind regards,
