Hi,

I'm 22 yrs old, and working in the HR dept for a local company in Dubai. I wanted to know if there's any way I can do an online dimploma course (online/correspondence - preferably in human resources/public relations) within 1.5 yrs and top it up with a masters degree? If yes, which colleges give that option, because I dont want to do a 3 yr degree course.

Also, is there any college that gives the option to do a degree within 1.5 yrs? Please let me know which colleges are good, and affordable.

Thanks,
Shradha.

Please help me out - don't know what to do.

I'm a 21 year old male from upstate NY. I've finished high school and started college a couple years ago. My major was Computer Information Systems (Information Technology). Basically I have 64 credits finished, and I have about 10 credits left, 3 or 4 classes. I had some problems in my life which left my last semester with all Fs. So to sum it up, I was a good student until the last semester, and I screwed up the last 3 classes that I had (Biology, Mathematics, Business Presentations). I also had problems with these classes, especially with Business Presentation, because I suffer from panic attacks in nervous situations (giving a speech, etc.). I'm not very good at math, so that contributed somewhat as well, and Biology is something I never cared about. Either way, I have completed alot, over 60 credits, and I have very little left. The classes that I have left are my weaknesses. My questions are these..

1.) Is it possible for me to finish this degree online, even though my last semester's grades are bad?

2.) If yes, is it possible to be ALL online, meaning I don't have to go on a campus? I'm good at this, and every online class I've taken before was a straight A.

3.) How long would it take for me to get this degree? I mean I have alot of credits completed (almost all of them). How would they look at this?

It would really mean alot to me if someone could clear these things up. I do not want to go back to this college and finish these particular classes. I want to finish the degree online, and need to know specifically how. I recently requested a brochure from University of Phoenix as well.

Thank you very much for your help!
