as i mentioned, their purpose in taking the graduate courses was to increase their salaries; i am quite sure they chose nova because the frequency of classes was much less than attending one of the several local universities.
Thank you very much for your feedback. I've waited for a long time for someone's response. I've noticed from your response that several of your collegues back in the USA have done their graduate degree at NSC; however, you failed to mention what they thought of the program. Why did several of your collegues decided to go to NSC instead of a "highly regarded institution."
nova is a 'real' university in the sense that there is a campus in florida, but they are probably more known for their on-line or off campus degree offerings. several of my teaching colleagues back in the usa have done their graduate degrees there to get a boost in their pay level. however, its not at all a highly regarded institution. personally if i were going to pay that kind of money, i would choose a more prestigious university.
I am thinking of applying to an online MS TEFL program at Nova Southeastern University. I was wondering if someone can tell me their experience with the program.
