Indeed I planned to give it a run in the future. I don’t need the degree but why not.
I read on the website that you can transfer your graduate certificates and microcredentials into this program and then complete the remaining 12 credits. I would think that once the ASU 100 million learner's certificate is complete that you could tranafer that into the program. ASU's own programs are very expensive. This is a good cheaper alternative.

Seriously, you can probably do the ENEB programs, do the foreign academic evaluation, complete the 12 credits and get another Masters for $5100+. But, this is a Masters in "General Studies". If you put the cash into two sessions for the MAOL, you have an Organizational Leadership degree for $4300. If you're really strapped for cash and want the most ROI/Value, the HAU MBA can't really be beat...

Agree best value is HAU MBA but takes long , speed wise if you are good at papers and think you can bang out a degree fast UMPI, but realistically JSU would be the best option for the least amount of credits needed to be done (12 credits / 4 courses ) which can be done all at once in one semester or broken down into two semesters (spring and summer , or summer and fall) I say do the summer semester as one of them because it goes fast and goes back to back. Summers tend to be shorter than a normal semester.
