Has anyone heard about the Sookmyung Womens' Universtiy MA TESOL program? It's a MA level two-semester program, condensed into five months. Good, bad, anything?

Went to the link, it's just a TESOL certificate thing isn't it? Didn't see anything about an MA anywhere....

I looked at it sometime ago... I think the credits are transferable to an australian univeristy where you can do your MA.

My wife did the program. It is a graduate certificate not a masters degree. The credits can transfer to the University of Southern Queensland's distance masters program.

She was happy with the program. At the time she did it (two years ago) there weren't any foreigners enrolled. But it shouldn't be a problem since all the profs are foreigners and it's 100% in English.

I had a better look at the info today... finally realised that there were two sections - one for native speakers and one for everyone else. Yeah, looks like you can transfer points to a number of Aus unis. It's 2.5 mil won. Not bad. I can't work out the timetable though - in some sections it looks like about 20 contact hours and in another, it looks like only 8 Confused Could always call them I guess.

Just wondering whether the profs at Sookmyung are well-qualified. I know of another graduate program in TESOL with professors fresh out of accelerated MA degrees.

I guess I could just go look at their website. . .
