It's working out for me. My husband and I have bought a condo outright, and are thinkign about havnig a family. that being said, I've had no retirement programmes set up for me, so we have to worry about htat.
I have an MA in TEFL and am doing a master in Professional Education and Teaching. BOth are distance. I think that you could get into an MA progrmame with no BA. Sometimes they count life experience as long as it's documented. HOpe it works out for you |

robertokun is speaking strictly from a Northeast Asian point of view when it comes to income. I make in excess of USD 5000 monthly tax-free and that's outside of provided housing, health, round-trip tickets children's education and so forth and so on.
The kids can get to be a bit much, but when you can save USD 3000/mo. and have a pretty good lifestyle, you quickly find that Japan/Korea has been a has been when it comes to making "good" money for the past two decades...

Sounds like you're doing well naturegirl.
Yes it does look like I have a good chance at being admitted. The potential problem would lie with employers/immigration not looking over my lack of BA. |

I can only speak for where I am, but kimmi doesn't care WHAT degree you register with them, as long as it's a degree. Some people I work with have their BAs registered, others have their MAs.
But I think you have something there, get an MA and BA at the same time. I know that the univeristy of Maryland has a good programme. It's aimed at military personnel and is very flexible, plus you can transfer credits. Look into CLEPing out of courses as well. And ask if you can get college credit for work / volunteer experience. Some places do that. There are other ways as well, look here

Korean immigration, but that's all I'm saying. There's a separate board with info about Korea. |
