Degrees from Foreign Universities

Occasionally, a student wishes to receive an advanced degree from an international university. Of particular interest to many is the opportunity to receive a master’s degree in 12 months from the British University system. While the experience would certainly be worthwhile, the student should be aware that a terminal degree is usually most valuable in the country from which it was granted. If the student decides to pursue a degree in a foreign university, they should write to the school or schools of their choice, inquiring whether they accept foreign students into degree programs. The student would then follow their application guidelines. Generally, approximately a 12-month lead time is necessary.
