Has anyone participated in The New School's online TESOL program? From what I see, it looks like it might be the best online TESOL program, at least out of the Universities in the US. The only problem is costs. The school's website doesn't list how much it costs, but the New School is one of the more expensive programs out there.

the costs used to be on the website. i haven't checked recently, but you'd be paying $30,000 for that degree. not worth it in mho.

I just got the info - 1,230 per credit. It's a 30 credit class so it's 36,900 plus fees. Ridiculously expensive.

I've got friends (MA's in the field forever) who I highly regard who've recommended that program. Great faculty at the New School..

The cost seems absolutely crazy IMHO.

Yeah, like I said, from the research I've done this is the best online ma tesol program out there. Good school, great teachers, solid curriculum, plus the ability to choose a concentration on curriculum development, which is something I'm really interested in. But it's so damn expensive!

Call me crazy but I think you'd be able to find a cheaper MA program with a better name (doesn't U of Idaho do an online one?) out there somewhere that's less than $20,000.

Quite a bit when no thesis is involved. A friend of a friend graduated from there and my friend said there was not even a thesis or project.
