Unaccredited or Life Experience Degrees that are legal?

[ak1238]

I would strongly suggest UMPI. At under $5k for less than 6 months, the cost is going to be right around the same as much less legitimate unaccredited degrees. Why put in time and money towards what will be viewed as a diploma-mill degree when you can instead get a legitimate degree that will be recognized by EVERYONE?

I’ll definitely contact the university today. Less than 6 months sounds amazing.  Thank you!

Hey ak1238, I've been getting regular private messages asking me this each and every year, just this last month alone I had 3 people ask me about these type of degrees.  There are many out there, but I usually would not recommend them even though some are usable.  Generally I get people to provide more details on why you're looking for these type of degrees.  Let me ask you, how much energy, money, time do you want to put into your education to get that degree?  Are you looking for an Associates, a Bachelors, or a Masters?  Provide me more details on your background, etc...

I agree with Rachel, although I would point to WGU instead of UMPI if you're going to stay in IT. Their IT and IT Management degrees come with a bunch of certifications. https://www.wgu.edu/online-it-degrees/it...tions.html.

I wouldn’t be able to finish quickly. I looked at the curriculum and It would probably take me 1.5 yrs to finish. Not bad but I’m looking for something faster. Thank you though!
