Nexford University MBA

[huiwh1998]

Just curious, why did you evaluate your eneb diplomas with 2 different companies?

I'm not the OP, but it could merely have been to see if the evaluation for one agency might be more favorable than the other. 

That isn't unheard of.

Yes, but the results are on the eneb wiki page.

Scholaro: Graduate study (Completion of one year of graduate coursework) 
IEE: Graduate certificate (accredited)

This is interesting, may can I ask you what type of evaluation did you buy from Scholaro (GPA Report, Degree Report, Credential Evaluation) ?

Course-by-Course $209.00 USD

Based on this it says 1 course at a time until you complete 4 courses. That means it would take you 5 months, not 3. I am just wondering where you got that from.

Also Nexford says you can transfer up to 60% of your degree. Any reason they didnt give you 60% and only 50%?

If you have no transfer credits, this is the policy. However, if you have transferred credits then you take more than course at a time after your first course.

Hey, can you post how Scholaro evaluates ENEB. I think, it would be helpful for a lot of people here

Scholaro translated the Masters in Supply Chain at 3.0 credits per course and as one year of graduate studies.
Scholaro translated the MBA at 2.25 credits per course and as 0.7 years of business administration graduate studies.

IEE translated the MBA at 2.5 credits per course and as one year of graduate studies.

There is some mathematical formula used based on the number of courses and ENEB saying 1500 hours. Unfortunately, I don't believe anyone is having luck getting a third party validating the ENEB to be any better. Validential is not valid for further education.

Just curious, I also wanted to ask the Original Poster, if you had a chance to look at the RA HAU MBA for $3K before you decided on the NA Nexford degree?

Yes, it was on my radar. The HAU was a serious contender but it's not competency based and I don't have the time to go at that pace and essentially be the elder in the room.

---

Nexford is NA, it also depends on the classes they would accept for transfer.  They're a good alternative for those who can't get in on any RA equivalents for cheap.

I've spent some time looking at the whole NA vs RA. It's more important if you live in the USA and your potential employer is really checking to that level. As I live in Canada, NA or RA makes no difference. They are deemed US accredited degrees in Canada, and I don't have to pay WES or Scholaro to validate US issued degrees for use in Canada.

Just to be clear, you submitted a Scholaro Course-by-Course evaluation report (Master in Supply Chain), AND

a IEE course-by-course evaluation (MBA), two different separate reports for two ENEB diplomas (MBA and Master in Supply Chain), and

They gave you 50% credit transfer for both of your reports, am I correct? How many courses were left after the credit transfer?

And the price reduced from 450 to 337.5 because you did the Sophia courses previously, right?

I submitted the IEE for the MBA as it was at the 2.5 credits, and the Scholaro for the Supply Chain which were assed at 3.0 credits. Sophia Learning provided me with the discount of 25% per month and they offered the program at $337.50 per month. Overall, not a bad way to use the ENEB work and get an accredited US degree.

And the price reduced from 450 to 337.5 because you did the Sophia courses previously, right?

On their website, for the MBA in AI specialization (accelerated version), it says 9 months duration, 12 courses, and $4050. Let's say you transferred 50% credits, which leaves you with 6 courses, and the possibility to finish within 4.5 months. Since they charge per month, the minimum duration will be 5 months. And the tuition will be $450x 5 = $2250. Because you did Sophia courses previously, they offer you 25% off, so the final tuition will be $337.5x5= $1687.5. Did I do my math correctly? And, theoretically,  you can spend less than 5 months, if you study even faster, right? 

Total cost will be: $1687.5 + $25 Application fee + $185 (IEE) + $209 (Scholaro)= 2106.5? Are there any hidden fees other than that?

$50 for them to process the transfer credits, only after you accept the transfer assessment which is done as part of your $25 application.

Just curious, why did you evaluate your eneb diplomas with 2 different companies?

I've used Scholaro in the past and it has been great. However, ENEB has a partnership with IEE and I had them review my MBA. The problem with IEE is they charge for every copy of the evaluation sent to a school. Where as Scholaro, allows you to send the evaluation from their portal to the as many universities or employers as you need at no additional cost.

Just wondering, I have 180 ECTS from ENEB, haven't been evaluated with IEE before, so I'm not sure what the results will be. If I send only the IEE report to Netford, do you think I can maximize the credits transfer, possibly 50%? Or do I have to mix and match the evaluations company (probably IEE+Scholaro, like you) to create the maximum yield?

Yeah, eneb feels like half dead now, and this post gives me hope to "correctly" "top-up" eneb diplomas to a legit full master, without spending a fortune.

I'm still waiting on my Isabel diplomas for the last dual Master's degree I completed.   Since Isabel I/ENEB propios degrees don't receive full recognition on their own due to the numerous nuances among foreign credential evaluators, I've listed these as Master's certificates under my licensure/certifications in my LinkedIn profile.  In any case, I've still considered looking for an inexpensive top-up option for a US-accredited Master's degree, and this appears to be a valuable option.

If you're going for this MBA, you may want to look at the $900 MLM from here instead, they're NA as well. https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-...nt-NA-DEAC

From previous posts, I have understood:

Scholaro translated the Masters in Supply Chain at 3.0 credits per course and as one year of graduate studies.
Scholaro translated the MBA at 2.25 credits per course and as 0.7 years of business administration graduate studies.

IEE translated the MBA at 2.5 credits per course and as one year of graduate studies.

From my understanding, to yield better results, evaluate the MBA with IEE, and evaluate the Master in Supply Chain with Scholaro.

Nexford is accepting two reports, right? Wouldn't it be a duplicate to evaluate the MBA twice? Did they choose the better report to count for credit? What did Nexford say about it? How many credits and courses can you waive?

I apologize for having too many questions, but this post is just too interesting...

[tordan]

I am interested in their MS degrees in Data Analytics and Digital Transformation—potential degrees for my wife. Do we know if the Sophia discount would apply to those degrees?

Yes, it applies to all their degree programs.

You've got it all correct. ENEB will send them all your diplomas and transcripts. However, you can only provide one evaluation per degree.  As they evaluated my MBA (IEE) and Supply Chain (Scholaro) Degrees.  Using the two degrees they provided me with seven courses, three core and four electives. Everyone will be different as I assume they look at the GPA as well.

To get the Sophia Learning discount, you need to go into Sophia Learning and request the scholarship. That creates the introduction between Nexford and you.

It's important to see their tuition site - https://www.nexford.edu/tuition (They have different tuition based on your country. Students in the G7 countries pay the most and students in developing countries have a reduce rate. They want to help people get a quality education that is US accredited). I believe they are trying to compete the University of the People from a social advocacy perspective)

I have an MBA+Supply Chain+Big Data from them. I guess I can use ECE for the big data diploma and evaluate it as a bachelor's, and IEE+Scholaro as graduate credits to maximize the evaluation results lol
