3 | University of the People | Online Only, Associate degrees and batchelor degrees in 3-4 core subjects. All classes in English. Small Class Sizes and strong community feel vs Moocs. In September, 2015, UoPeople announced that it will provide at least 500 scholarships to Syrian refugees. The University is also hoping to Arabize its program to better serve Syrian and other Arab refugees who do not have suffcient English language skills to enrol in its current programs. Students would be expected to learn English over the course of the frst three years with the goal of enrolling in courses conducted in English in their fnal year. This will allow them to engage in discussions with students from multicultural backgrounds in their fnal year of study. The program hopes to offer 10,000 students placements over a 10-year period, provided that funding for the initiative can be secured. In addition, students would be supported by Syrian staff, who would ease their transition and guide them throughout the online educational experience. This model would simultaneously provide opportunities for Syrian students and adults seeking employment. | http://www.uopeople.edu/about/leadership/administration/ | 2009 | California | Higher Education | English requirements here : http://www.uopeople.edu/become-student/admission/for-non-native-english-speakers/providing-proof-of-english-proficiency/ Extra scholarships for Syrian refugees / asylum seekers | |||||||||||||||||||
