Hi guys,

I am so grateful for this site coz had I not checked it out I could have continued sending my hard earned money to a questionable institution. I have been taking a Master in International Relations at Atlantic International University and it is only yesterday that I got to read about the possibility of it being a degree mill. It got worse when I read about the federal charges that I could face given that I have been sending my CV to both local and international organizations for job placements! Maybe it isa adegree mill maybe it is not but I am sure I do not want to continue spending my time, money and energy on a degree that might not be of benefit to me in the long run.

That brings me to the help part.....Istill want to study International Relations at Master Level. I would also still like to take it online given that I am not able to get to the classes physically. (Im Kenyan by birth and domicile) Consequently, I would like to get some information on which schools can offer me the course online. Being an international student I would prefer something that is tailored for international students and is affordable, flexible and recognised.

Your response will be highly appreciated

Sandra

Two off the top of my head are Norwich University (great school) and American Public University (likewise, a great school)

Hi Sandra, and welcome!

It's too bad you got sucked into Atlantic International University, but at least you found out as quickly as you did and want to switch to something that will better meet your needs.

I agree that Norwich University is very good, their MA in Diplomacy is a great choice.

I also agree that American Public University is good.  They're strangely named, as APU isn't actually a public university, but it's still legitimate.  Their MA in International Relations and Conflict Resolution might meet your needs.

Another is Webster University, which has a MA in International Relations.

Another is Troy University, which has an MS in International Relations.

I also checked the University of London, thinking that they might offer something like this through their external programme, but to my surprise they don't.

Do any of these look interesting?
