Julie, I am sure karma adjusts for those who are truly in a bad way. After all, karma comes from a philosophy of respect to all, no matter what their lot in life, or how they treat us.

Oh gosh, you are all so kind, or so silly.

Mame, there used to be pics of me on board, but I had my own special little stalker for awhile, so they were all removed. I'll send you one if you really want. LOL

Did I mention that you should be cautious about people you meet online?? except me of course!

Anyone have any experience with finishing your degree online? Like with University of Phoenix or something like that?

Escapee - I thought about it but have decided to retire and go back to school full time next January. UofP was pretty expensive...at least I thought it was...and I could get caught up quicker and cheaper by going to the local state university. I've actually already got a student number and will be enrolling in classes in the next few weeks. I was totally surprised they gave me full credit for my previous work since my most "recent" course is 30 years old! I don't want to totally retire yet and actually have a job waiting for me after my planned one year of school. I'd rather have a fresh degree from University of Texas than University of Phoenix hanging on the wall. :-)

I was just curious. I am going to try to get my work to cover most of it, but with kids and the hours DH and I work, going to CSU or JC wouldn't be feasible at this point in time

Well, as long as your company supports you and knows you're getting your education on-line from UofP then go for it. I think it's getting better but my impression is that generally companies don't think much of on-line degrees. That's probably because many of the degree granting on-line universities are scams. UofP seems to be one of the legitimate on-line opportunities.

Have you talked to the college / university in your area about distance education? A lot of schools will let you take courses via correspondence... your labs / lessons are posted on line and papers are emailed to your professor. You're only required to show up for scheduled exams at the end of the semester.

A good friend of mine has been a 'mature student' for years at UBC and has done three or four correspondence courses a year for a while now.

Escapee, I'm currently going to Argosy, which has online classes as well as blended classes (mostly online, but once a month I spend all day Saturday and all day Sunday at school). I'm enjoying my online classes, because I can do them when I have time (although I do have to make sure I post to the boards a couple of times a week - that's not really a problem!)

Abby7, I hope you are not for a minute buying that glib denial. You have hit the nail exactly on the head. Look what happened to me when I met Karuuna in person.

That's why I suggested correspondence, Escapee. You do it all from home, online, without having to meet the professor and take classes in the school setting. My friend took UBC (Vancouver) courses while she was working in Calgary (8hrs away) and in Colorado.

I know she had to show up to one or two of her final exams (once in four months), but even that is not a constant. Just thought it might be more convenient.

I have taken online classes before. I will find out from Chico State if I can do correspondence classes. I know my credits are transferrable. I am going to go for my BS and then my masters. Unfortunately, I now have children and a husband and a house to care for. Ugh.

Escapee, my employer (local county goverment - 1400+ employees) fully supports UofP degrees and encourages them to the point of having them come speak at new employee orientation. but, they don't pay for any of it and i, too, find that UofP is very expensive. good luck!!
