Alcorn State University

I'm looking for an online, affordable biology/health/med domain master's degree, and I am stuck upon a 100% online biology master's degree from the Alcorn University program. Still, no other info is available on the website, like current tuition (for online programs?), application deadline, etc. Has anyone, by chance, had experience with this uni? Thanks

A cut/paste of my post from a few years ago, if you're OK with an international education: https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...#pid310848

"For example, each individual is different and if it was me, I would go for an online education from one of the smaller players in a similar field, I am interested in Bio-Medical Engineering & Sciences.  I was going to follow Sanantone's pathway and apply to UF Online Masters but decided against it pretty last moment & mainly due to the Coronavirus, I have my eyes set on a Master's One Health at Ross University Vet Med School in the Caribbean.  Even though it's cheaper at $9 grand vs $16 grand at UF, it's not the main reason for choosing the program, the different program courses and subject matter taught is what I am more interested in, not always just cost.   It's a "mixed bag" concentration of animal, environmental, and human health that is taught entirely online, there are similar subjects I really enjoy... from Agriculture to Animal and Marine Biology or Zoonotic Diseases (yes, the Coronavirus)."

Thank you, great catch! I'm not sure if I'm eligible for this program, but it would be nice to know about all domains of biology. I believe that with this degree, I could enroll in a PhD in the biology of aging. Putting it on my application list.

It's a good catch, too! I remember checking this uni and comparing it with UF's master's in innovative aging studies. Both are great.

What a find!  I am adding to my list of possible future degrees. It seems like the degree can be completed in 9-12 months.
