No, you have it wrong. This program actually is a degree completion program. I applied to this program a while ago and was admitted and given credit for all course work requirements and just needed to take the dissertation that is really a work based project. This is not a MPhil but a MA program, you are given credit based on your previous course work, I was granted 120 credits from 180 credits so just needed to complete 60 credits. 180 UK credits are about 45 US credits so I was able to transfer the equivalent of 30 credits. I found another program that better fit my needs so I did not register but the OP could get his course work recognized towards this degree.

The nice thing is that you can negotiate the title of the degree so it could be in anything you want as long as it matches your course work.

What other program did you end up settling on? If 180 UK credits equal 45 US credits, and you transferred in 120 out of 180, that would have only left you with 60, which would be 15 US credits. Did you find another program that allowed you to transfer in even more or required less credits to finish?

If you do not find a suitable masters program you might be able use your 30 units to obtain a second bachelors degree in general studies or liberal studies from EC or TESU.
