Which is better? I feel like online would be cheaper. Any thoughts? I want a quality education but also affordable. Thanks!

So only one answer on online vs residential? Can you guys create another thread to talk about that specific program?
I have attended classes on campus before that were graduate level, I got something out of some of them but not all, it depends on the school and the professor's teaching style. Online definately requires more time management. residential you are more limited by the structure of course offerings

When you say residential do you mean staying on campus? I'm in an online program through a traditional school. I need online for my life...family and such. The school isn't too far from my home but far enough I wouldn't want to travel there daily. I think a lot of it comes down to what works for your life.

My target program is a hybrid. 1.5 hours from home and I complete work online and meet in person every other Thurssday and Friday. I have two small children (1 & 3) work every weekend, and have a house and hubby so I cannot envision going to campus daily OR never going so I split the difference. Hope this helps.
