Most affordable online schools? - tuahbao - 01-02-2025 Hi there, Greetings I am a working adult with a tight budget, but would like to continue to pursue study. May I know if you can share your experience with me about which online schools are the most affordable? 1. Field - MBA/DBA or IT related (AI, Big data, Data Science) 2. Online school (either live sessions or pre-recorded videos) 3. Medium is in English language. 4. Okay to have private/own degree (or unaccredited degree, as long as the quality of the education is good and the educational institution can legally grant its degree to the students in its local country/state) I got to know a lot about ENEB from this forum, however any other institutes besides ENEB? Thanks for your advice in advance. RE: Most affordable online schools? - FireMedic_Philosopher - 01-02-2025 Cheapest regionally accredited US online MBA is Hellenic American University. Cost as of the fall semester of 2024 was only 3,000 USD total.

Amity has both Indian and US (regional) accreditations. They offer a number of different degrees that may interest you, but here are two that match your original parameters fairly closely: Master of Science in Data Science 4,400 US Dollars https://amityonline.com/msc-in-data-science Master of Computer Applications with specialization in Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence 3,600 US Dollars https://amityonline.com/mca-machine-learning-and-artificial-intelligence-online Other options, including an MBA can be found here: https://amityonline.com/ RE: Most affordable online schools? - Ares - 01-02-2025 I would never get any degree from a school in India. RE: Most affordable online schools? - openair - 01-02-2025 (01-02-2025, 06:57 AM)Ares Wrote: I would never get any degree from a school in India. It's your decision. I used to think in similar ways. It's true that some Western employers may occasionally discriminate against holders of degrees from this country. However, an accredited Indian university is a totally legitimate choice for individuals looking for more affordable degrees abroad. Of course, you've got to be extra careful, especially with things like licensing based on an Indian degree and so on. But if you do proper research and know what this foreign education entails, it may be the right choice. As for unaccredited Indian scam schools, you should absolutely avoid them. Amity does not fall under this category though.

I am not from the U.S., so I don't have to explain anything to American employers. But it's a valid consideration. It's just that it applies to getting any degree from outside the United States. RE: Most affordable online schools? - Znow - 01-03-2025 Fort Hays State has an online MBA with a concentration in Information Assurance. At $374.50 a credit they're one of the most affordable RA schools. It's a 42 credit program, so you're looking at $15,729 before fees.

Their graduate credits are $349. They do offer an MBA with a concentration in Info Management. They require a few prerequisites if your undergrad is not in business. This is pretty common but it is something to consider when looking at cost.
