I think I need to have a conversation with someone at the University of Virginia.

I think they meant Virginia University of Lynchburg (VUL), which is VERY different from University of Virginia. They are a Christian School that is accredited by TRACS. https://wp.vul.edu/index.php/about-vul/accreditation/

There have been atleast two active and long-term members here that went the VUL route. I wouldn't be surprised if there have been atleast a half a dozen students overall that went the ENEB route to enroll and complete the one-year DHA degree from VUL. Someone with just a Bachelors degree or in one of our member's cases a Bachelor's degree equivalent using the ENEB Masters for an ECE Bachelor's evaluation could achieve the DHA using ENEB for the Masters and additional electives in 2 years or less after the Bachelors.
Also, VUL is a nationally accredited school so I am I quite sure that DEAC, TRACS, and any other national accredited school will be much more receptive of ENEB degrees for entry into doctorate programs as well as allowing evaluations from non-NACES and non-AICE foreign credential evaluators. The two members who used ENEB to enter VUL used Validential for their foreign credential evaluations.

For clarity, there's a difference with the institutions we're referring to, as Lynchburg has multiple institutions...
For some reason, I think this is the institution referred to most recently. They're RA and somewhat affordable.
They've got 4 doctoral degrees in total. Link: https://www.lynchburg.edu/academics/graduate/?tx_post_tag=doctoral
Their accreditation page: https://www.lynchburg.edu/about/university-data-analytics-and-effectiveness/accreditation/

I think it's VUL they were referring to. No one has ever spoken of attempting to use ENEB evaluated transcripts at the University of Lynchburg.
RE: ENEB New Master Thread - nykorn - 05-12-2025
I'm here to report on the ENEB deal for the 12 months of Oakford language learning which gets you certificates, which I purchased in April(?) for Italian during ENEB's anniversary sale. I was just given access to the Oakford site.
Long story short it's really very good and so far I think it looks like it was worth the money.
For A1 level, aka "Hi my name is...", they have flash videos and so on, you can then choose to do things like clicking on the correct English translation of the Italian or putting the Italian words into the correct order based on the video. However what they really do is push you to start watching short videos in Italian as soon as possible while seeing definitions also written in that language.
For example the bottom of the A1 page entices you to challenge yourself with an A2 video. That video is actually likely a bit above A2 level, but they have you watch it once, read an intro or summary of it in Italian, and they then pause the video and describe what is occurring in it in text form, similar to visual descriptions in movies for the blind. It is not simply showing the dialogue like what most learning platforms do, instead someone has actually written a basic description of the current scene in Italian ("Two men are walking on the road....") and you can click on any Italian word to see its definition. The video for the one I tried is a clip from a popular made-in-Italian Netflix tv show, the clip itself is available on YouTube.
Oakford's technique can definitely get you to B2 or C1 level in any of their offered languages easily, I used a similar technique to get to C1 in Japanese so I know it works.
Whenever you feel you're ready you can take an Italian level test, after completing the test you are assigned a language level (A through C) and you assumably get a certificate for whatever levels you passed.
The site will let you translate the Italian you're learning to English, Japanese, Slovenian, Turkish, Thai and a bunch of other languages, so Oakford is not only for English speakers.
When you register through ENEB you must choose which language you will learn. This gives you a "license for learning" on the Oakford site and the license is only good for some set pairs of languages (the license is invisible, I found it out by messing around with Oakford's URL). I purchased from ENEB for Italian, and this means my "license" is only good for learning Italian or Spanish, which I can switch between freely. I can't however switch to German, Chinese or the other languages Oakford offers unless I purchase from ENEB again and choose those languages.
I'll update on my thoughts again after having used Oakford for a few months.
ENEB has not yet added the extra ENEB courses that came along with my Oakford purchase to my ENEB account, I think it was something about AI and something about how to look more professional on your CV, can't remember.

Does anyone have the updated timeline for getting official documents from Isabel I? I've seen 90 days and I've seen 9 months but most posts were from last year.

I recieved the digital ENEB diploma within a few days (5 days I thought) after finishing the exam end of February. The digital diploma of Universidad Isabel I, I could download 10 days after the ENEB diploma.
The physical diplomas and Apostille then after 45 days (total = 60 days from the day of finishing exam)
