What does anybody think of this information?

There is a lot of information on UNISA on the other forum. Their website is difficult to navigate. Even though it's a PhD by dissertation, don't expect it to be a short process. I heard you're pretty much on your own. A professor in my doctoral program is from Europe. She said the dissertations for dissertation-only programs are about 3 times the size of what one would do in the U.S. She said hers was really three dissertations in one. I wonder when the author attended University of Pretoria. While still cheap, the tuition and fees at the South African Universities go up every year. I think UNISA is about $1400 per year. If you can finish in 5 years, it'll be $7,000 unless the tuition continues to go up. That's not bad, but it's not the $3,000 the author paid. Also, expect to pay out of pocket. You cannot receive financial aid for distance education programs in foreign countries.
