Walden Masters Degree - Limited Discounts!

[Supermind]

are the courses fairly easy? How many papers to write?
Overall as a program is it hard?

I have created another thread where I have offered a detailed description of the MS-Psychology Tempo Learning program at Walden.

I would the courses are not easy and that there are lots or least the normal amount of papers to write.

Thanks, i read one can transfer 23 credits in, is there a list of courses that one can transfer in?  Do they have to be graduate level courses, or bridging courses?

Sorry, Seagull. When I wrote that I forgot to add the word "hope".

Darn, I knew I missed the fine print somewhere. It was just a couple of clicks away (or a few clicks). Oh well...
The 50% off lifetime would be the better option than the first term free and this option of $4000 split into 6 terms.

You can only transfer in graduate courses. The courses which are transferable are the courses required for the degree. It's not like a BALS degree where you can take anything and transfer it in. Transferring credit at the graduate level is much more difficult than the lower levels. Just because one can transfer up to 23 credits into a program does not mean they will accept 23 credits. They may not accept any.

I think it's Amberton University that will allow you to transfer in 24 credits.

I think Amberton only allows you to transfer in 12 graduate credits?

YES, you're right!  I was getting my 24 mixed up

Do micromasters credits apply?

I understand the limitations especially at graduate level. But when I read that they allow a certain number of credits be transferred in, I thought they might have a list of what they accept.

Logically speaking, Micromasters credits should apply, because they are graduate level courses. Maybe you should go on a call with some Walden staff member and clarify.

You would have to ask Walden. Every school has a different policy on this. Many are no because they're not truly college credits. Many are yes because of the way these programs are designed. It's up to each school. Some may accept them for certain programs and not others. You really have to ask each school and specifically about the program you want.
