New Georgetown Coursera Bachelors

[bjcheung77]

My partner just finished this program, he will graduate next May.
He took 19 classes - 4 semesters.

He double majored in Business & Entrepreneurship Concentration and Politics & International Relations Concentration

Hmm, basically, how much did it cost? About $22,800 plus previous credits transferred in?

Yes, around 23k-24k - he actually has around 120 credits from different schools but never had a degree, they accepted 60 credits and he had to complete 60 more. Two semesters he asked to take 6 courses, which he had to make a special request to do so.

He was really interested in the Georgetown name, so this degree was perfect for him.

Just curious, is he on track to graduation? Or has he graduated? I'm basically rooting for him and looking forward to his completion!

While doing research on other programs, I found Notre Dame started a similar program Fall 2024. They have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. Both require a transfer minimum of 45 credits and max transfer of 75 credits for the Business, 78 credits for psychology. 120 total credits to graduate, $412 per credit hour (same as Georgetown). It doesn't seem like they accept ACE credits: "transferable units from other regionally accredited institutions."

The university linked is Notre Dame de Namur University in Belmont, California. NDNU has around 300 students and recently closed its on-campus undergraduate program and sold its campus to transition to being an online or heavily online degree completion and graduate school. Its endowment prior to selling its campus was around $22 million with an m.

I'm sorry your friend is having a poor experience in the Georgetown program!

Wow, I'm stupid. I googled it and the first result said "Notre Dame de Namur University placed #31 for Best Value." The next result was the University of Notre Dame U.S. news & world report ranking.

edit: can you fix my initial message so it's clear it's a different school. Sorry about that

For those who want a Catholic education, Regis University, is Jesuit, very transfer friendly and accepts ACE credit. Online tuition is $599/credit hour and they do provide financial aid. They have an accelerated degree completion option, 8 week classes, but not CBE. Regis is a Sophia partner. Please note, I do not endorse Catholic doctrine.

There are two, unrelated Regis Universities in the USA, this one is in Denver, CO.
