Any language degrees?

[ladylearner]

I'm completely knew to the whole earning a degree by tests/online (in a very short period of time). I have a rough understanding that it's the type of method which requires discipline and being self-organized, which are things I very much enjoy and excel at.

What brought me here and why I would be interested in getting a degree is because I need a university degree to teach overseas. There have been other situations where not having a degree has caused me issues. If I can get a degree in a year, even with hard work, I think it's worth it.

While getting a degree is good, I want it to be useful, enjoyable (something I enjoy) and something which I am interested in. What interests me the most is a BA in Foreign Language, or any degree which would be related to language, such as interpretation or translation.

Are any of these available to do in one year and by tests/online (or almost all online)?

Kind regards.

It's not possible to completely test out if a degree in foreign languages at either of the Big 3. You can earn a whole lot of credits through (ACTFL language testing) for your advanced knowledge of listening to, speaking, and writing a foreign language. However, foreign language degrees require other credits in the foreign language like literature, culture, and electives. Depending on your background, you may be able to fulfill some of those areas with portfolios. They're not for everyone, just as testing out isn't for everyone but I enjoyed the process when I earned some portfolio credits in Hispanic literature. Based on my background, I was able to demonstrate college-level knowledge.

I know this isn't testing out but those are two ways I know for earning foreign language credits.

If you only want to test out and are comfortable earning a degree in an area related to foreign language, then the cultural studies concentration at Excelsior or Humanities and Liberal Studies concentrations at TESU can put good use to the foreign language credits earned through testing.
