I have a few questions about whether or not I should choose online schooling. I plan on eventually end with either a masters degree or a Ph.D. I only plan on doing online school until I get an associates degree. I want to eventually major in either environmental sciences, ecology, wildlife biology or the such. I was wondering if there were any accredited online colleges out there? If there are do they have a science based course or a biology major? What would the costs be? I am a 19 year old Caucasian male, single, no children, dependent on both parents. Father has not been around since I was 3 and more than likely will not pitch in for schooling. My mother is currently out of work and can not help me either. Her credit has recently been ruined as they tripled her interest rates and she can no longer pay. Another question would be am I capable of receiving a small loan or grant for a free laptop? I have many more questions but I do not want this to become overwhelming. Thank you for all answers! Even the sarcastic ones ;)

BEST ONLINE COLLEGE FOR THE MONEY

Technorati Tags:

My husband is in the Army. Part of the requirements for promotions are college credits. We think online courses would be best, since he is rarely home, but he only needs 29 credits. All of the online colleges seem geared to a specific degree, and none of the subjects are interesting to him. Do you know of any accredited online schools where he could take random classes in interesting (easy) things like mythology, history, stuff like that? At 3 credit hours per class, we figure 10 easy classes and he's done. He doesn't want a degree in IT or Criminal Justice, and that's all that seems to be offered by the major online schools. All help appreciated.

Abet Open University?

I'm looking for a low-cost online MBA course and I happened to come across the website of Abet Open University. It's tempting but I wonder if it's legitimate and/or credible? Has anyone ever heard of that university?

Speaking at a graduation ceremony, Elder Ballard urged BYU-H graduates to participate in online discussions about the Church. http://www.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/news-releases-stories/apostle-urges-students-to-use-new-media

I'll admit that I feel like I'm addicted to Yahoo! Answers, and that I waste too much of my time on here. However, after reading this article, I actually feel better about spending so much time answering questions about the Church.

Of particular interest to me were the following statements:

"…conversations about the Church would take place [online] whether or not Church members decided to participate in them."

"We cannot stand on the sidelines while others, including our critics, attempt to define what the Church teaches."

"Perceptions of the Church are established one conversation at a time."

Are online degrees/classes a good idea? ?

I am thinking about doing a master of fine arts degree in computer arts online with the Academy Of Art University in the future. I will NEVER move to California but I am really impressed by that school and I would like to get my masters at some point…so, an online degree is the nest best thing to actually going to the school. I just want to hear from people that have gotten online degrees/taken online classes.
AAU claims that their online masters programs are the same as if you were sitting in one of their classrooms.

So the story goes like this: I dated this Muslim guy for a few months from march this year and he left after to go on a business trip. That trip was supposed to be for 3 months but it turned into 6 months and he told me during that time that he was going for an arranged marriage. Of course I was hurt when I heard the news and my feelings were still there for him, like in all that time that he was absent. It took time to let go and still be his friend chatting on the phone weekly (while he was out there – avoiding the arranged marriage talk etc). Everything still felt good with him, and i still saw him like a soul mate. But I came to know in October last month that he lied to me about stuff. I did something behind his back to find out these lies and I had to do it. He told me never to speak to any of his friends or family early in our relationship (and he never even introduced me to any family, just kept me distant and on the quiet. I believed he did that cos he’s family was strict but anyway I did something. I became a ‘fake’ or ’stranger’ who became friends with this ‘J’ – his brother, on an online social site i.e. myspace. I made up a whole identity on this social site just to talk with J (and I knew this was his brother because my ex had already pointed him out to me as well as other siblings etc long ago) but yea I talked with J to find out stuff that I was longing to know. I found out that this ex of mine didn’t go on any business trip; instead he moved out of london with his wife and 2 kids of 1 and 4 yrs old. I found out also that he lied about his age also. this ex of mine said he was 27 (which is a bit older then me) but as ive come to know… he’s actually 35yr old. Anyway in all that time calling me on private no. he made out like he was out there in india doing business and preparing for his enagement etc. just wanted to further away from me as you can see.
and in was in shock was when i learnt all this. everything made sense, the things i’d seen, knew – just came together with all that info.

Anyway, about 3-4 weeks ago I actually spoke to his brother J on the phone, for the first time with my new identity (and with my real voice) and with an old number of mine. He was asking for me to meet and to continue our chats even on families, seeing as that was my favourite topic! =) (well it had to be in that case; with me asking all the questions I did about his family). I was like I don’t know when we;ll meet, we’ll see.

So after learning the truth about my ex, I wrote an email to him – my ex (as me of course) I wrote a calm and straight to the point email, making it serious too and sent it to all 5 email accounts that he has. I said of how I know everything about his life, of how i know all this through my friend being friends with brother J (through the identity i made up). basically i nailed all the points and pieces of info I knew about him, from his wife to kids etc. shocker email.

I even stated to him how he just used me that whole time and how he might not be happy with his wife and sex life, so had girls like me in his life (including his previous ex’s) for fun and sex.

Anyway, I haven’t heard anything from him/my ex, after sending that email. There’s been no more phone calls like before (maybe he feels scared to talk with me) I’d like have an apology or at least would like TO DO something more that will shock ;d and scare.

and by the way I have time and energy to waste here and i do want to continue to do damage till I get that apology (even though I’ve pretty much said bye in the email!) i want him to come forward and confess everything.

I could leave all this but I have an opportunity to continue here using his bro

What more can i do? What else? this ex needs something more, i want the **** to be deeper then it is.

I was wanting an associates degree in liberal arts and sciences. I'm hoping one day to become a psychologist not a business major.

Anyone have ideas for an online college to study what I want?

i did get hurt over knowing about him but i feel so determined TO DO something.

My fiance got divorced from his ex wife when he discovered that she was cheating on him while he was on his second tour in Iraq. That was 3 years ago. She has been bitter and spiteful towards him ever since. When he got out of the Army 2 years ago he filed for joint custody of the children (age 10 and 5) and got it. She has not respected him as their parent sice then. She speaks badly of him to the kids. She tells them that I am a bad person. When they tell me that I ask them what they think and they do not share their mothers opinion. She has even said horrible things about my 6 year old daughter to the kids which they repeat to her. Despite all of that we do not speak badly of their mother to them. She married the man she was cheating with last year. And 2 weeks after they were married she filed for full custody of the kids. We went to court and the judge left the custody as joint in all regards for both children but stated that because the 10 year old boy was struggling in school, parenting time was to be changed to being with his mother during the week and at his Dads 3 weekends of the month until summer when it will go back to week to week. He got 5 A's, 2 Bs, and 4 C's last marking period. And he also has ADHD. I don't think that is horrible for a child with ADHD. His grades started falling off after his mother had him put on stronger ADHD medication because he was "to hyper"and she could not handle it. There where no complaints from his teacher. She put him on this medication even though his father disagreed. After this acusation in court we went and looked online at his grades from week to week and he actually did better when at our house. The 10 year old also wets the bed, which I believe is possibly from all problems going on. We have tried to talk to his mother about different methods to help the bedwetting (chiropractor and/or counseling) she doesn't want to try any of those things but she has no problem blaming my fiance for this problem. Luckily, out of this last custody hearing, the judge as ordered counseling for him. The 10 year old was very upset when we had to tell him about him having to be at his mothers during the week and at our house only on the weekend. We didn't know how to explain it to him so we showed him just the part of the judges opinion that stated the new parenting times. We explained to him that none of this was his fault. The mother does not co parent at all with my fiance. She does not tell him of doctors appointments or school fuctions. She refuses to send over the kids scouts uniforms on my fiance's week because (as she tells the kids) their dad cannot be trusted with such things. Yet she has not sewn on any of the patches that they have earned. (They are stapled on) We are members at the YMCA and wanted to sign the kids up for swim lessons. We talked to her about working together on getting them to the lessons from week to week. She refused and accused us of trying to make her look bad. We signed them up anyway for the 7 week course and they will just have to miss a few. Every kid should know how to swim, especially when living in Michigan. She also has disagreed with: Ballet, dance, football, basketball, karate, and boxing. We don't know what to do. We love these kids and want whats best for them. I can tell that all of this is really effecting them and I wondered if anybody has any ideas on how to deal with a difficult ex spouse.

I have a bachelor's degree from Indiana University in Journalism. I have been working in customer service for manufacturing companies for the past year and a half. Should I go back to school for my MBA? Should I take an online course to become a CFP? Or should I look for an internship at a financial services company?

I've been with my husband for 6 years, married for 3 and we have a 9 month old son. Shortly after we got married, my husband started "flirting" with other women online, at bars (while I was at home pregnant) and at work. I know this because I saw emails, text messages etc. Some conversations were really innapropriate for a married man. After questioning him, I was left to feel like it was all of my fault because I "snooped" to find the information. I only snooped b/c I was pretty confident about what I would find. He would then in turn call me stupid, dumb a**, b**ch, etc. After months of name calling, I hit him. I tried everything I could to "stand up for myself" but after being kicked down so many times verbally, I reacted physically. This of course, didn't help the situation and again, I was the guilty one. I tried leaving in December 2007 while pregnant with our son. I had an apt. and everything. My husband lost his job in Jan. 08 at the time of my move and played on my sympathy for me to stay. Things got better and we started counseling but only breifly b/c he thought it was stupid. Then, it was back to the same old thing. Now, I was working full time, pregnant and being mistreated. He got a new job. I work in a high school and he coached football there. I later found out that he was flirting with some of the students at the school, exchanging text messges etc. He was fired from his coaching job. This time I left. He called me crying, saying he had found God and that we would seek counsel at a church this time. We went to two sessions and he quit. Now, it's Jan. 08 and he's not talking to women anymore however, I can't tell you the last time we had a date, the last time he said he loved me, or even told me how good of a mother I am. Last night, I cried to him and told him that in June (when my teaching contract ends), if he hasn't gotten with the program, I'm taking my son and we're moving. He didn't even seem to care. We're in a tremendous amount of debt and I am at the point that bankruptcy and moving in with family seems better than staying at home. Do you think there is anymore hope? Has anyone here been through this? I need support but I also need to strategically plan my exit so not to be suckered back into coming home. What should I do?

Thanks for reading all of this!!! I appreciate it.

About a quarter of colleges and universities check prospective students' social network pages before offering admission or scholarships, says a survey released last month. "Most colleges will do whatever it takes to recruit the right type of student to their respective institution."

Ok, I just recently convereted to mormonism in November of 2008. During general conference two weeks ago, my Elders were telling me that part of the general conference was private. The only way to view this part of general conference, you had to be at the church. General conference was broadcast on BYU TV and also online at the lds website. But, the two hour broadcast to the ladies organization within the mormon religion and the one for the males was private and only viewable if you came to the church, because that's the only directv receiver that would unscramble the message. This has greatly disturbed me because I don't understand why there would be a secret message to just people that go to the church for that two hour segment. I couldn't attend because of work, but no one will tell me what the message was. I just wonder if anyone knows why this portion of general conference is private. I am considering leaving the church due to this because I just don't get why we need a secret session such as this. Thanks!

(ok this is really long I apologize)

basically he broke up with me about 3 months ago after a 2 year relationship. He was very clingy to me during those 2 years and I was a bit cool to it because I take a lot of time to warm up. I was going through a very stressful period learning I had a chronic disease and he was always there for me. But eventually my stress got to him because I would constantly complain about my life and circumstances and not be there for him as much as I should have been.

In a lot of ways I took the relationship for granted. He would constantly text me and send me pictures of himself to be cute and I am ashamed of it but I didn’t really care at the time. In fact the clingyness was such a turn off that I lost sexual interest in him. Now that we are broken up I appreciate all these things and wish I could go back and respond more like a good girlfriend to them. I always seem to not be emotionally into relationships until they are over.

Anyways, he broke up with me 3 months ago, mainly because he said I didn’t love him enough and loved him less than I loved my exes (because of the same pattern of behavior where I love an ex more than a current bf). I told him it would be hard to talk so we made plans to give me my keys back. He came to give me my keys and started crying saying he “felt this is what [I] wanted.” He wanted to talk more but my Mom was in town visiting so I couldn’t talk. A few days later I got a job offer and he found out through a friend and texted me to congratulate me but also put in the text that he loved me. About a month after the breakup we talked on the phone and he told me he loved me and thought about me a lot and that we should hang out sometime.

A couple weeks later we hung out and he again said he missed me. I said I didn’t know what to say to that because “you broke up with me.” A few minutes later he started hugging me and cuddling. We made out a little bit then I didn’t hear from him for a week. So I called him and we hung out again. This time he was more distant and I felt something was up. About 2 weeks later I found out he started talking to someone online from his hometown. They have been talking now for 5 weeks, which is why he has kind of stopped telling me he misses me and loves me. The other person actually flew in to visit him after only about 3 weeks of talking. But I’m not quite sure they have any plans to make a relationship work as my ex is stuck in this city for the next 2 years for school and the other person is stuck 1,000 miles away indefinitely.

This seems to remind me of how we started talking, our relationship was long distance at first. So it could work, who knows. At any rate I am hurt that since the breakup, he had made so many attempts to contact me and then abruptly stopped and started seeing someone so quickly. After we stopped seeing each other I did some self-reflection and realized that I really wanted to be back in the relationship. But now the ex is seeing someone online so he really shows almost no interest. It’s like night and day. Should I basically give up or just wait and see if they break up?

I don’t want to get further hurt in this, I was fine after the breakup, but now almost 3 months later, the breakup has finally hit me and I’ve been a trainwreck for a week now. Finding out about the new online romance is also not helping at all. But at the end of the day I realize this was probably the most loving relationship I ever had.

I confessed my feelings to him and he told me he needs time. I kind of pressed him for an answer and he couldn’t give me one. He basically said he wouldn’t get back together with me now because his guard would be way up. But he didn’t rule it out entirely. He said he never says never.

He was so into me and he seemed to regret the breakup afterwards, so I think his whole moving on is all about him meeting this new person online.

I just don’t know what to do (help please)!
