Used to be that one could "earn" a PhD from the University of the Pacific for a few hundred $$.

Check out MIT to see if their Management Dept has any online course material.

I am currently taking my MBA on line at Kaplan University. I am taking my first class and it is anything but easy. On line degrees are gaining respect and there is a great deal of self discipline involved. You will also see on line degrees growing in undergrad degrees because it is much less expensive. Student loans are available for them as well. My wife is also getting her masters in education from Kaplan.

Many universities are expanding their programs to offer significant-maybe even total- online training for non-traditional students. There are a few online programs that are accredited. If they aren't you're not eligible for financial aid.

Be totally honest with yourself...you must be very self-disciplined to pursue online education. If you aren't, you will lose interest/motivation & not complete the classwork on your own.

Western Governors University. It's something a consortium of western States put together for online education. It uses courses from a large number of big name State University and Colleges. Definitely NOT a diploma mill. Highly respected because of the origin of the content and its quality.
