Creative Solutions for Money and Missions

Tuition-Free Master's Degree!
Teach English in Asia and simultaneously earn your Master's degree tuition-free! You'll gain valuable overseas experience while participating in one of five programs: Intercultural Studies, Education, Business Administration, Teaching, or TESOL.

The teaching program partners with quality schools including Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, California (TESOL), Lee University in Cleveland, Tennessee (Teaching and Education), Wheaton College in Wheaton, Illinois (Intercultural Studies), and Eastern College in St. Davids, Pennsylvania (Business). You'll be studying on-site in Asia as well as by correspondence over two years, including three summers.

The teaching portion of this experience does require support-raising, while the Master's degree opportunity is tuition-free. You will also be responsible for books, room and board during on-campus class time, and summer travel within the U.S. to and from your chosen institution.

This is an innovative and integrative approach to earning your Master's degree. And you can pursue your education without the usually outrageous expenses and debt of higher education.
