MEd that's a good price, 1 year or less?
#1
I am looking to compare some MEd degrees, ones that don't need you to already be a licensed teacher. I'm kind of flexible about areas of study because I have a few interests, but don't want one focused on K-12.

I like competency based programs, because of the cost, and I like the pressure to work quickly. The only competency MEd I could find are the two that WGU offers. It is fine with me that they don't lead to licensure.

The main thing I dislike about WGU is they won't take grad transfer credits. I'd like to do as much as possible though VESi and similar programs to save money and time. I think the VESi credits will also be convenient.

I do like WGU's offering, but is there any MEd program that's cheaper in total than 2 terms at WGU?

No. I mean it might be ok, but they are probably more expensive and need practicum, I guess.

Also prefer RA, but I guess I could consider NA if it was much better in terms of cost, speed, etc.

WGU has two types of master's programs: those for certified teachers and those for licensure. If you're not licensed, you will need to complete a semester of student teaching.

Hm, well that's disappointing for me Sad I had forgotten why I gave up on the MEd degree before, but this is why.
