Posted by bposton on October 31st, 2006 — Posted in engineering degree online

BOO…

Did I scare you? :-)  

I couldn’t let All Hallow’s Eve pass without giving you the top 20 largest online schools. Again, this list comes from US News and World Report. As expected, the University of Phoenix tops the list with over 187,000 enrolled (Now THAT’s scarry…:-) )

What was suprising to me was little Cape Fear Community College in my home state of North Carolina comes in thrid with 45,000 students. As Darth Vader would say…”Impressive…”

Just goes to show that there’s alot of folks getting an Associates Degree online too. Food for thought.

Speaking of food, I need to try out some the candy I got at the online Halloween Ball. So while I stuff my face, here’s the list:

University of Phoenix (AZ) 187,712

Troy University (AL) 77,845

Cape Fear Community College (NC) 45,000

University of Maryland–University College (MD) 40,009

What do you want to learn?

Posted by bposton on October 17th, 2006 — Posted in engineering degree online

I found out the other day that when it comes to getting an education online there are
degrees that are more popular that others.

For example, the most popular course subject are business and computer sciences.

So what if you’re interested in something else, or something a little more abscure?

The trick is to be able to find the program that you’re interested in, and then see if
there’s an online course or degree program that fits you.

It’s not easy, as I’m finding out - but I’m also learning that there are probably
many ways to make it less time consuming.

And I’ll share these with you as I find them.
