please help...(online film/education degree)

Like many of the posters here I have some questions about where to locate a credible institution... Specifically, I am looking for a way to complete my MA in Film Studies or Education degree as soon as possible and I really hope that someone can help me out... Ideally, I am looking for something that I can enroll in for January 2009 and would prefer to do a one-year program if possible... Any help would be most appreciated as I really have found one program (University of Exeter) that meets my criteria...

Thanks in advance

 

You might save us all some time and trouble if you'd tell us a bit about those criteria.

 

Here you go...

Here's some older threads with some useful info...

Good luck!

 

thanks taking the time to reply... In response to your query, I desperately want to teach film/media at the community college leve l and as such, need my masters degree... My passion is for film studies as that is my undergraduate degree... The main thing that I am looking for is something that is fairly well accredited because I wish to do my PhD in Film Studies in the future and do not want to waste my time and money on pursuing a worthless MA that is not recognized... I also want to enroll in something hopefully in Jan 2009 because, as mentioned, I am very eager to move from where I am to the USA... Currently, I am in the Caribbean so I need to find a program that is completely online where I do not have to spend time at another institution (I looked at the Extension MA at Harvard)...

I am really hoping that people can help as I really do want to teach film... I need an MA in either Film or Media to do this... I would also like to complete it within a year... thoughts ??

It seems that there are more of these programs than I knew. Here's another from a reputable Australian university. I've thrown it into the mix because it's a bit different than most others. This is done entirely by research (no coursework). I don't think you can do it in a year but it might be fun to actually make a movie rather than take courses. Good luck.
