I've been to Singapore a few times! I was lost in Bugis before and one other time I was lost in Sun City Shopping... <laugh>. That's great, so we know the basics, do you have a set budget and what degree are you looking at? I assume any bachelors would do, maybe one that uses your previous credentials may be better, or something you're more interested in. Do you have a preference for assignments, exams, writing?

Your best bet is to get an academic evaluation done and see what they come in as when evaluated. Do you know any other languages? I recall Singapore has 4 official languages, anyways, you can get many credits if you're fluent in one or two other than English. I would recommend the ACTFL for the specific languages if it's offered... Again anything else you can add, more details will allow us to assist you further!

Asking for "a Bachelor's degree" is pretty generic. Smile If you hate business topics, it does no good for us to suggest a business degree. If you have poor math skills, you'll probably want to avoid degrees that require more than the bare minimum when it comes to math. Maybe you love math and want to avoid writing essays and papers, preferring exams. Maybe you hate exams and would prefer to write papers and do projects if you can avoid them.

If you want a Bachelor's in Psychology, hopefully to use as many of your diploma's credits as possible, TESU or potentially Excelsior have degrees in Psych and we can help you with that. If you want something else, we can help you with that as well.

The cheapest is probably UMPI YourPace which would cost $2800 if you complete in 2 sessions.

Make a spreadsheet of your degree plan using the Wiki:

There is a Study.com deal for $140 per month for the first 3 months. (Coupon code: PatriciaMcQuarrie) Then you need Sophia.org for 2-3 months @ $79 per month.  Use ACTFL to grab quick credits if you are fluent in other languages.

Have you looked into taking any courses for credit at LawShelf? Super user-friendly, and about 50 of their courses have NCCRS credit recommendations. The courses are all free, and each has a $35 proctored exam fee, but that's it! Best of luck to you!

If you speak another language (or multiple languages) fluently, post that and we can tell you how many credits you could get for that using ACTFL.
