I think the idea has much merit. Even at the K-12 level, we have many students who do not have access to the Internet. It's an interesting solution.

Might I suggest that all that you say is likely true and yet it matters very little. I tend to think in many cases the differences between NA and RA accreditation is minimal. My opinion on the subject doesn't matter either. The only opinion that does matter, in my opinion is the opinion of RA schools looking to accept units in transfer or ...

As an aside, I am quite curious to see how that program at New Mexico State University works out for folks. I am surprised that they are able to charge in-state tuition. One would think NM taxpayers would have an issue with that. Do you know anyone who is actually in the program?     Tom Nixon Best Online High Schools

It has been interesting to watch the evolution of San Joaquin Valley College. It is a local school for me. It started out as what was once called a business college. It went after and achieved regional accreditation; a not easy task given their earlier structure. Kudos for eLearners.com for getting them to come onboard.

I just came across an article in the online version of the Wall Street Journal. It lists a number of cost-cutting devices for these perilous financial times including online learning. No, they are not talking about higher education. They are referring to the many online K-12 schools now available that are free. Some are charter schools and some ...

Steve is exactly right about finding programs with dual enrollment, so that you could get both high school and college credit. Two for the price of one is always a good deal. One school that does offer such a thing is the University of Missouri High School, but there are certainly others.     Tom ...

Hang around for a while and you will absolutely learn many things about distance learning (and related topics).   Tom Nixon http://BestOnlineHighSchools.com

I absolutely agree with that statement. Since the vast majority of folks just wander through, you need to be understanding that newbie questions come up time and again. And, to be honest, I am always learning new things which may change my answers to questions.     Tom Nixon http://BestOnlineHighSchools.com  

As a veteran of the distance learning forum drama wars, I know from which I speak. While I occasionally pop in over at those places, it is more on a weekly or monthly basis. I just don't have the time. That being said, what is happening here is quality information without the explosions.   Tom Nixon === Best Online High Schools

I am constantly amazed at how quickly online schools are growing in the K-12 market. My website, http://BestOnlineHighSchools.com, has over 200 online high schools and the number is growing almost weekly it seems. Where will it end? I see it growing for quite some time. In some ways, portions of the online college market are tapped out. They ...

Welcome! I think you will discover that Elearners.com has a lot of information, but much less drama than other distance learning websites.     Tom Nixon http://BestOnlineHighSchools.com  

Very true. I did want to let the OP know that there are possibilities other than ABA. I have actually known of a couple of now-lawyers who came to California specifically because there was that option (and because their home states had few options). Has anyone ever put together a list of all of the different possibilities/rules/etc. for all 50 ...

Good introduction, Steve! This is a topic of great importance and that gets misinterpreted on a daily basis, it seems.

To reiterate what has been said, I am not even sure what an accredited doctorate would look like that did not include a dissertation. The point of a doctorate, in a sense, is the creation of new knowledge.     Tom Nixon http://BestOnlineHighSchools.com
