Is it more expensive to do a online college or a traditional 4 year college?
Question:
Answer:
Online is not necessarily cheaper. Also, there are good online programs out there, but you have to be very careful about choosing one. Like any program, some are better than others. However, if you don't have the time or ability to get to a live classroom a few times a week, then I would persue an online degree. Also, if financial aid is an option, then online will work equally as well as traditional courses.
You have to be REALLY disciplined to study through online courses. Not too mention, many online courses may not be properly accredited. Costs are still expensive. If you are looking for the least expensive way to attend college, I would look at your state colleges and universities. Find the programs and prerequisites. If you can take courses at a community college and transfer them to a state university you would save additional money.
