    Could anyone give me any information on EducationDir.com, or Thompson Education Direct? I received the info today in the mail and would love to get a degree as a paralegal, but am not sure of who to go with. They have a wonderfully affordable payment plan and only costs $799 with no "hidden cost" according to them, takes 18-24 months to complete. I would love to know your opinion, or better yet your suggestions to a paralegal carreer that is affordable to accomplish. Thanks so much!! Momof2boys
