Online or Brick_and_Mortar

It's been a while, but I'm back and blogging.

I took some time to switch gears and get my doctoral proposal approved.  That's squared away, so let's blog, shall we?

In 2013, I decided to return to school to pursue a doctorate.

I always knew I wanted to be called, "Dr.," but how?

Well, stop trying to fix what's not broken.  I was teaching at the college level since I was 19.

However, at the time, I was working 3 other jobs between 3 counties.  There was no way I could work out a schedule.  On top of that, I kind of don't need my hand held when it comes to writing papers.

The Internet is your friend; at 26, I did not feel the need to have someone in front of me.

Why am I trying then to move to another state to study science? 

Why can't I stay at home, work, and complete coursework from my couch?

Brick-and-mortar are great for certain purposes, but online worked for me, for a particular school.

Do your research and find out who has the program for you.  Who has residencies that work for you?

What are the costs, enrollment timeframe, and what financial aid is there?
