Recognition of UMPI YourPace in Egypt and Other Countries

[worldly face]

Hello everyone,

I’m an international student from Egypt considering the UMPI YourPace online program. I’ve researched the program and accreditation process in Egypt and wanted to hear from other international students about their experiences.

My main concerns are:

1. The program is fully online. Could this raise questions about its legitimacy with degree equivalency committees?
   
2. A significant portion of credits comes from alternative sources (e.g., Sophia, Study.com). Does this appear on the transcript, and should I proactively address it with the committee?
   
   

I’ve read on the Egyptian Supreme Council of Universities' website that degree recognition is determined case by case after completion, as long as the granting institution is accredited. However, my mother, a college professor, believes that fully online degrees may not be taken seriously by the equivalency committee. I don’t want to invest time and effort into earning a degree only to find out it isn’t accredited in my country, as I don’t plan on relocating.

If you’ve gone through this process in Egypt or elsewhere, I’d appreciate your insights on how your degree was evaluated 
Thank you!
