I’m Sakurai panda that loves wearing a mint-colored panda pajama (@ Pandasakurai1)!

I hear a lot of worries about wanting to study in the US or Europe but cannot afford to pay too much money, want to study abroad but can’t get enough money right away, or want an English degree but can’t go abroad. I was one of them.

In this article, I will introduce the University of the People that solves those concerns.

UoPeople is a tuition-free university, but what kind of university is it?

UoPeople is tuition-free (up to US $ 500,000), accredited online American university, recognized by the State of California, and has a degree granted by the California State Higher Education Institution (BPPE). Because it is accredited, you can transfer from an ordinary American university and transfer credits, so there is no difference from ordinary American universities.

Professors are from prestigious universities such as Oxford, NYU, Princeton University, etc. They have a partnership with Microsoft so if you become a student you can use the Microsoft office for free!

Associate and Bachelor degrees include ①Business Administration, ② Computer Science, and ③ Health Science

Master’s courses include ①Master of Business Administration ②Master of Education.

For my high school diploma, I contacted my high school teacher and prepared an English diploma.

Regarding the graduation certificate mentioned in ②, I had an Apostille certified high school graduation certificate in Japanese and in English , so I scanned it and sent it by email.

When transferring from another university, credit transfer can be made to UoPeople, so the graduation years will be reduced and costs will be reduced.

Transfer costs are: $ 17 per course.

In my case, I transferred 60 credits and it costed only about 30,000 yen (about $300), and when I transferred to New York University Prague, which I attended before UoPeople, it costed about $1000! So UoPeople was much cheaper.

Here is a list of the 12 scholarships offered by the university.

And you can apply for a scholarship from here.

UoPeople was created with the desire to make higher education available to financially difficult and refugee people, so everyone has the opportunity.

④Yammar

A community site exclusively for UoPeople, such as Facebook, created to connect the UoPeople network.

In fact, my Program Advisor answers to various questions and supports me by encouraging me when I’m worried about continuing my class because of my professor, or when there is something wrong with the course. (All exchanges will be sent by e-mail within 3 days)

There is also a Japanese group at Yammar and people ask for course advice! The largest group is about 100 people ^ ^

Summary

“I want to study abroad and get an American degree! I want to study English and improve my English! ” You have these kinds of thoughts, However, studying abroad in the United States usually costs more than $18,000…

If you study at UoPeople,it costs less than $5000 for 1 bachelor’s degree!It really cuts costs to the utmost, making it a system for anyone in the world to receive higher education.

You can transfer to UoPeople or transfer from UoPeople to another university. I have actually seen someone who was transferring to a Canadian university on the Yammar or Facebook group page.

UoPeople has few blogs, but I will do my best to disclose as much information as possible.

  • MBAというのは「Master of Business Administration(経営学修士」の略なので本文にある

    「MBAには①経営学部(Business Administration) ②教育学部(Education)があります。」

    というのは間違いです。教育学修士は「Master of Business Administration」であってMBAではありません。

    また「学部」とは大学院の修士課程・博士課程に対し「学士課程を意味する」言葉であるため、大学院に学部はありません。「経営学部の修士課程」などは明らかに誤りですね。

    そういった高等教育の基本的なことをご理解されてないようなので記事全体の信頼性もまったくなく、せっかくの情報なのに残念でした。

  • 誤字があったので訂正します。

    誤)教育学修士は「Master of Business Administration」であってMBAではありません。

    正)教育学修士は「Master of Education」であってMBAではありません。
