During the enrollment process, there was absolutely no request for any records showing that I have earned a degree prior to this. And you can’t just go for an MBA without first having a bachelor’s degree.
I signed up just to try to learn and see how well I would do. Maybe I will finish, maybe I won’t. Maybe I will flunk out. Who knows? Either way, I still think it is worth the price.
That is part of the reason it is considered a top-up bachelors from ECE. Another reason is that since the Masters degree is unofficially awarded from Universidad Isabel I as a propio, you cannot use the credits earned in a Masters propio to transfer into another Spanish official Masters degree at Isabel I or any other Spanish institution. From what was discussed in the sister forum, it was discovered that credits from the propio can only be used towards bachelors level courses. While ECE explained it as being a fourth year undergraduate equivalent instead of first year graduate level, they may have known the policy of Universidad Isabel I only allowing credits in propio to count as undergraduate transfer to any other program.
If this is evaluated through ENEB alone, it would get a non-accredited Masters equivalent here in the US. Other evaluators may take it as graduate credits but not equivalent to a US Masters degree. Either way all of these are good outcomes for the price. MCA may be trying to make the propio Masters official so when all documents including Isabel I and ENEB are combined, it could possibly get the US accredited masters equivalent.
Ultimately, it won't matter for most here in the US who already have degrees in other fields. Most employers won't even care as long as it is coming from a reputable institution.
