    Hi,

    Finally I received Bear's guide.
    After looking at many online bachelor programs seems to me that one of the best (for me personally) is
    BA (Hons) Business Studies at Business School of Univeristy of East Londong.
    Advatnages:
    - cost for whole program is $7000 (including text books)
    - 3 years
    - open admission (not even TOEFL is required)

    I received their info pack and everything seems really great.
    Theis address is
    http://www.uel.ac.uk/elbs/flexiblelearning/index.htm

    I'm from eastern europe and have no previous college experience. My goal is to get Bachelor degree in business.

    Many US schools offer great programs as well but are usually more expensive. Austrialian usually last 6 years (distance learning).

    If anyone has any experience or comments about this program please share it here. Also I haven't deceded yet, so I will look into other comparable programs as well (worldwide).

    Thanks

    I've never gotten a negative letter about them (and I get lots of negative letters about schools). A good friend of my wife is doing her degree through them in history, and is extremely pleased -- especially with their flexibility. She had to stop for a few months, twice, because of family crises, and there were no problems.

    My only caution is about the beds in the dormitories. Marina and I stayed there once years ago when I was giving the graduation speech for the Greenwich School of Theology and our backs haven't fully recovered yet. Hardly relevant for a distance learning student.

    Best wishes in your quest.

    Thanks for the info. If you didn't get negative letters then it must be good.
    Well my back will be fine, just my fingers could be hurt in this program :).

    I must say your guides (I have two) are just great and with everything explained. Now I can understand a lot more about west education system in general.

    Thanks again.
