Quarter Hour, Semester Hour Debacle...PLEASE HELP ME.

I really wanted to take actual classes because I'm a little nervous about taking classes online because I've never taken a course online before. But I guess if I have to bite the bullet I will but damn!!!!

When I first started taking classes online, I was a little hesitant as well. I had concerns for the quality as well as validity of the courses, not to mention the workload (figuring, well, that if you're not sitting in front of the instructor he'll just pile the work on you).

My concerns turned out to be invalid-- colleges are embracing the methodology, the courses are the equivalent or close enough in quality, and the instructors are usually not unreasonable. Additionally, since I have acquired self-study habits through IT certifications, I like being able to study on my schedule and not someone else's.

If you do not find a college in Ohio offering a class to your liking, don't hesitate to consider a community college offering outside your state. I can tell you there are many good ones in Arizona and California. Folks here and on other boards praise certain CCs in New Mexico. I could personally recommend Barstow Community College or Mira Costa College in California. Sure, the fees are higher than in-state tuition for Ohio, but they might still beat what the Big Three charge.
