Are these new?
Anybody taught at a uni here w/ a U of Pheonix degree? I wonder how looked upon these degrees are with immigration and unis around Korea.

Immigration only looks at people's B.A. They don't care where your MA is from. It is up to the university to decide whether your M.A. is worth anything. |

Herein lies the dilemma. Any posters have had experience teaching in Korea with a masters degree from this institution?
I may try this program out next year sometime.
Any idea on start dates and tuition costs? |

It is extremely expensive.
I have read posts where its considered one step up above a diploma mill.
Do a search for masters- distance and also masters online and you should find some better alternatives. |
