    Unless something has changed since 2009, when I discussed the issue of GI Bill approval for study at non-US universities by distance learning with the University of Leicester in the UK, the VA won't approve it, although they will approve B&M attendance at schools that have been approved.

    In addition, just because the degree is "dissertation only" does not mean it is necessarily a "distance" PhD. Most would expect the student to be physically there, doing the research, assisting with teaching, and other duties.

    One of my friends did a "dissertation only" PhD in the UK, and lived an hour away from campus. His adviser would not allow him to do to any work from home because his desk and chair was not approved by the university's ergonomic standards.

    UK docs

    Like others, I seriously looked into the UK doctoral option, but with the at least once per year on campus requirement, discovered it would cost nearly as much as a US doctorate [travel, a big cost].

    A good friend of mine went the UK doc route. The travel and costs about wore him out.
