Accelerated Law Degree, Low Priced Accelerated Mster's Degrees ?
Q: I've added the beginnings of the links to value priced distance learning master
degrees and good meta link sites. Some of these may be well known to some:
others not. Sheffield Hallam University, UK, offers the MA in Imperialism and
Culture. Pure self indulgence perhaps, but accessible to most at a snip under
$3000 complete. M.Ed. from USQ at $3600 is fairly well known. The crop of LLM
degrees from Northumbria University at Newcastle, UK, at $4500 including all
books, perhaps less so - no JD or LLB required, and campus visits are optional.
The US $4000 M.Ed.in Educational Computing from the University of South
Australia requires just four (4) courses. Also the iCDL site, a well designed
comprehensive database of UK DL offerings for those interested but who may not
be aware of it. The GoodGuides, of course . . .
A:Prices listed on [i]BA in 4 Weeks[/i] site are correct and current, I believe.
You may find other prices quoted elsewhere on the net that are out of date.
Also, it's worth noting that though the programs cited require no campus visits,
that isn't always as clear as it might be in the official literature. Full
listing beginning construction at

Some offerings in the completed list will be the focus of the new series, "7
weeks study to an accredited Master's degree", which should start to appear this
year. If the student is properly organized, study time required on some degrees
can comprises as little as of 7 weeks. Official institutional time to
completion and degree conferral varies from eight months to two years.
Small part of the Master's section in the BA in 4 Weeks web site is now
operating. Among the programs featured are:
. A UK MA for under $3000 - materials included
. A Master's in Accounting for under $6000
. A real LLM with no need of JD for $4500 inclusive of all study materials.
. A real M.Ed. in 4 courses for $4000
. A real MBA for well under $6K inclusive of all study materials
. A real MS in IT for $7K inclusive of most study materials
At these low prices the cost of books can comprise a significant proportion of
total costs (typically, another $2000 above program tuition costs) and so the
"inclusive" bit can become an important consideration for those on a tight
budget.
