Online and accredited. Can be CBE or regular.
Looking for very inexpensive options. Would like to spend under 12k.

I know walden has theirs in tempo, and I'm looking at that I just hate that its more than WGU. 
Other than Walden, anyone know of options??

Are you looking for a path to licensure? Is RA required?

If NO for both those above questions, then California Coast University (NA, DEAC) has a self paced MS in Psych for under $10k

https://www.calcoast.edu/m.s.-master-of-...ology.html


But if you're looking for licensure or if RA is important, this is not a good option.

Licensure isn't important, it's mainly to extend academia possibilities. (i.e. teaching higher ed)

Central University of Nicaragua = $5,900 (will do installments with a $2,000 minimum first installment)

California Coast University = $9750 ($150-$175/month installments depending on down payment amount)

Some higher priced ones just for the heck of it:

Rhombus University (Christian-centered) = $15,000 (can pay in monthly installments, amount unknown).

Aspen University = $17,800 ($325/month installments, they are on show cause with the DEAC right now though)

I would've listed the Master of Arts in Counseling from Kairos University (Christian-centered) as it's $400/month, but it includes practicums/internships and that would pretty much mean a career change unless the place you work for would take you on for it.

what about unisa? it's accredited and online, isn't it? if I calculated correctly, it should be less than 4000$.

A foreign degree should do as long as it gets an RA master's equivalent evaluation. I'd choose a foreign school with an RA master's equivalent over an NA school in the U.S. since the goal is to teach in higher ed, but there are U.S. RA schools that fit the OP's criteria.

Prices change and there's always a race for the bottom.  Fort Hays is typically among the cheapest and you might want to check out Angelo State.

ASIC accreditation is not proper institutional accreditation. ASIC was set up only to help immigration matters. However, they operate outside the boundaries that they're supposed to in the UK and the UK Government for some reason allows it.

The jury is still out on EIU's quality. At 1,500 it's not a big risk, but it's not accredited so it doesn't meet the OP's needs.
