Getting a Masters without a Bachelors:

Are there any other accredited schools other than Edinburgh that offer this possibility. Edinburgh has steep prices.


Thanks if anyone can help!

I have a risky option. Some unaccredited schools will allow you to start their Masters program without a Bachelor degree even though their guidelines say no. You may want to pursue a school that is in the process of getting accredited now! It is risky and you never know if the school has the ability to get accredited, so you will need to research the quality of the school and how committed to getting accredited they are. Just an idea!

There are a handful of colleges/universities (Heriot Watt, University of York, IMPAC University etc) that accept students who lack an undergraduate degree (but with significant work experience) in a graduate level program.

There are a few unaccredited school that will accept you withouit a Bachelors, there are a few overseas good schools that will also accept you without a Bachelors, but like American schools will take into consideration work experience.

You can check out www.unisa.edu.za
www.mancosa.co.za
www.firststeps.co.za
www.mba.co.za

These schools are also very cheap compared to US schools, and equal to RA accredited schools
Good Luck

You did not respond with areas of interest so I will mention the three that I have found in Canada.

University of Guelph - MBA in Hospitality Management
Royals Roads University - MA in Leadership
University Canada West - MBA

Each of these programs has a statement in the admissions requirements that suggests they will accept candidates who do not have an undergraduate degree if they present with significant managerial/leadership experience.

Hope this helps.
