- Femme - Posted January 25, 2011 Someone told me about this and I'm so excited to start Inshallah. Just wanted to share. http://www.islamiconlineuniversity.com/index.php "About Us The Islamic Online University (IOU) is the brainchild of Dr. Bilal Philips. He envisioned an institution that would offer online intensive, undergraduate, and graduate courses in Islamic Studies completely tuition-free. Dr. Bilal Philips, Founder and Dean, Islamic Online University The IOU was launched in 2007 from Qatar with an offering of completely free diploma courses. Alhamdulillah, although we began with 1,500 students in 2007, by the end of 2008, the number of registered students tripled, reaching 4,500. And now, as 2010 draws to a close, Allah has blessed the IOU with a student body of over 30,000 students from over 177 different countries. In 2010 the IOU launched the world’s first tuition-free, online Bachelor of Arts in Islamic Studies. This path-breaking initiative utilizes the worldwide presence of the Internet and advanced open source online learning technology to bring low-cost, university level Islamic education within reach of anyone on the planet who has access to a computer and the Internet. Thus the IOU Now has two separate virtual campuses: the degree campus and the diploma campus. Each campus is hosted on its own dedicated server There are two branches of study on the IOU, the diploma courses and the degree program. For the degree, there are no fees for the courses. However, there is a fixed symbolic registration fee and examination fee each semester which is calculated on a sliding scale (from $20 to $60) depending on the student's country of residence. The diploma courses are completely free. There are no fees involved at all." Amazing isn't it? No excuses people. The only requirment is high school graduation. Wish I knew about this earlier. May Allah bless those who started IOU. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blessed Posted January 25, 2011 Salaams. IOU is amazing, I highly recommend. I've completed a few of their short courses and doing 2 at the moment. I'm distracted by work at the moment but the beauty of IOU diploma courses is that you can take a break when ever you need it and pick it up again when you can. Hoping to do the full degree at some point, Insha Allah. All the best, sis. There's also another online course which I've come across recently, ejaazah.com . I'm familar with Muhammed Salah's work and love his straight forward approach. ejaazah.com You have no excuses, people.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
