Yes, several countries besides the UK accept distance education degrees for master's programs, as long as your degree is from a recognized and accredited institution.

Acceptance policies vary by country and university. Some examples include Germany, France, Portugal, the United States, and Sweden, where many universities recognize distance education for master's admissions.

Always check the specific requirements of your target universities and programs, as criteria can differ.
