I have an online degree in kineseology or however you spell it.

You have a degree in something you don't even know how to spell?

Let me guess, it's an unofficial online degree certified by IM through Ghostdog?

It depends on the school. There are some legitimate ones out there, as well as, some real crappy ones. If you are looking at taking classes, but don't want to actually attend in person, most colleges and universities have distance learning programs. (Even the bigger schools) Basically, they offer classes via internet. Not sure if you knew about them, but I thought it was appropriate for the discussion.

thanks, at least someone gave some good info.

Distance education is legit, but usually they can only be applied to a certain percentage of your required credits to graduate. I'm allowed up to 12 hours of online/distance education credits, but they can not be core classes. I can't use them for chemistry or physics, but did do it for a psychology and english class and it's so much more convenient, because you get 1 year to finish the course at your pace and when I took the exams, the proctor that was supposed to watch me left to get lunch then came back. You can also actually pay $50 per course to get a 3 month extension (for USC anyways, i'm not sure how it works at other universities). They're great if you're trying to graduate early, or can't fit class into your schedule. My online class did meet on the internet once a week, but that was the only requirement, besides taking the test at a USC approved location.

u goto usc? i thought ur name was somethen about south carolina game cocks, now your lil play gay talk with topolo is making alot more sence

I can see where you get lost, because it's very confusing. I don't know how they get USC out of University of South Carolina.

ahhhhhh, i just assumed usc was So Cal

haha, it's the same, but as far as far as the NCAA is concerned, Southern Cal is USC and were SC. I was just joking around with you.

Lets get some opinions on this.

Has anyone done an online degree?

P,

I think as long as the school actually has physical classes as well you are good to go. Like UTEP, CUP, and tehre are others. Another thing you need to look for is whether the University is a member of one of the governing bodies of colleges and universities (I think there are 4, and broken up geographically).

My buddy we were discussing actually prefers online classes. He finds it a more efficient use of time to have the assignment and the ability to go over the lecture at the same time rather than take down notes that may be irrelevant. ME personally, I can't sit for a 2-3 hour lecture which is typical of grad school, so being able to watch it in parts over a longer period would benefit me greater than having to show up at class. Think of how much time you spend looking up stuff here and on the web. For the most part, I surf for 30 minutes to an hour and then do some more later.

One thing you should also be awrae of is whether the Uni you get your degree from puts that it was obtained online. I know UTEP and CUP do nor. It shouldn't be a big deal, but someone may be a bitch about it.

great advice dale.

thanks Mr. Snafu

Thanks to everyone else that was very helpful. I think I may do it!

BigDyl....shut the fuck up you bastard.
