    Can one get a job with Atlantic International University degree?
    I wonder if there are any online universities with broad range of Masters' programs.Actually,I am interested in Social and Human Studies,Departments of either Middle Eastern Studies,African Studies,Gender Studies,etc.Ican't seem to be able to find any such accredited colleges,much less the ones that would be available for International students of various ages.I found Liverpool online college,but they only offer programs in subjects such as:Business,Economics,Information Technology etc. the very ones that I am not interested in.I must admit one more thing:I have already enrolled in Atlantic International University very enthusiastically;I paid my enrollment fee and the first installment of my tuition,but after finding out that they are an unaccredited organization,I realized that I had made a hasty decision and am considering withdrawing from that university lest I shouldn't waste much more money.
    Please,help and inform me if there are any other online universities offering the aforementioned Masters programs and if they are available for International students of all ages(I am 42).

    The question for you is, what will you do with your degree when you graduate weather from AIU or any other school you end up with. Although as you mention they are not accredited, accreditation in the real world is if the studies are recognized in the field and you can use your educational knowledge/credentials after graduation for promotions and job possibilities. The Atlantic International University looks legit. Looking at the school you can see many student testimonials, news, videos and work posted online by its students. Again unless you need the degree for a very specific process you should be able to use it professionally as other students of the school, look here:

    From the Main page there are links to several interesting pages www.aiu.edu

    If you got your degree from there you should ask for a refund.

    It's a SCAM, the owner is a Jewish Mexican who calls his name under the title of DR.. I assure you he never ended a masters degree, just another trick to make people fall in his game. PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR THESE KIND OF FAKE INSTITUTIONS, cheap things cost more at the end.
    Take your time and go to a real University or go online and look for accredited ones (Phoenix, Thunderbird, etc).
