Hi all,
Do any of you study online to get your degree? Are there schools that are more accessible than others, and are there some that are less costly than others? I looked into this option before, but the online schools seem a lot more expensive than traditional schools and wanted me to take out a lot of loan money. Has anyone here had success with an online university and also finding scholarships to help with the costs? Are these universities accessible as far as textbooks and course materials?
Thank you.

I honestly don't have any info, though I've heard that pheonix tech is good. However, your questions are really good and something I am also curious about.

It is important to be sure you have enough discipline and patients before doing such a route.

I've often wondered this myself and of course our local DBS office had no clue about accessibility. Anyway, you'll also want to make sure that they're accredited and that your course work would transfer if need be. I have a friend who took classes through University of Pheonix and none of them transfered.
Good luck though.
