    Hello good people,

    Thanks for al the help i have received from everybody.Its been a really great family in here.

    Can anyone pls help me with information on ANY accredited university or college that offers entire degrees based on evaluation of applicant's CV or resume? The college or university may be located ANYWHERE.The degree title or name isn't important.

    Thanks

    Love to every buddy!

    Not that I can think of, without testing or portfolio development of some sort.

    maybe in one of the overseas schools...

    The closest you'll get to earning a degree with this method is through portfolio assessment, and it is still a lot of work. There are plenty of schools which offer portfolio assessment, but Thomas Edison State College is the one that immediately comes to mind.

    If a school offers you a degree strictly based on your resume, it is likely a mill and therefore worthless. Stay away from them.

    You're going to have to prove your background and experience, be it to TESC, COSC, or Excelsior or some other school.
    I've yet to hear of an accredited school just giving a degree for what one writes down on a resume. Portfolios, and examinations and independent studies at a RA are likely your best options.

    Sam,

    1. I would honestly be surprised if you could get a legitimate degree merely by an evaluation of your CV. If your interest is in theology (B.Th), then I am aware that South African Theological Seminary can give advanced standing for documented academic work or documented professional (ministry) work. Don't know if this is the direction you're thinking at all.

    2. The most rapid and cost effective way of completing your degree is likely by proficiency testing, or "testing out". Virtually an entire, regionally accredited degree can be completed by testing. The best resource on this is the BA in 4 weeks site. There's a lot on this here as well, so use the search function.

    Hope this helps.

    Peace,

    Matt
