ENEB Master Thread

[cacoleman1983]

I don't recall what Vle045 mentioned being a reason ECE gave for their decision. I just remember a long and convoluted tale with the most memorable part of the reasoning being that ENEB allows 3-year Bachelor's degree holders to be admitted, which should have no bearing on that since schools in the United States allow students from the UK with 3-year Bachelor's degrees to be admitted all the time

It's important to look at the MCA degree for what it is: a standalone U.S. credential. It won't make a propio itself official, or have much if any effect on evaluator's decisions. And since it can't be evaluated by a foreign degree evaluation service its acceptance will be entirely up to the school a student is applying to. That of course is a good thing because this will give students far more transfer options than they would have being at the mercy of the foreign credential evaluators who are all seemingly working in concert against low-cost foreign programs and not just propios from Spain. Some are coming up with ridiculous reasons not to give them their proper credit.

Yeah it seems that the MCA deal is like the UCN deal with validation except that they are not accredited.  I'm guessing a person might as well just get the WES evaluation over the MCA deal since it is cheaper if nothing else better can come out of it as both ENEB and MCA Masters degrees by themselves are equivalent to a state-approved Masters degree. Better yet for all Americans, leave it alone unless an evaluation is requested.   VIe045 mentioned ENEB not requiring transcripts upfront when enrolling in their program and I took that as a reason why an evaluator may discount their program by giving it a lower equivalency then they should.
