Hello, New member and looking for more info about my plan. I'm a Filipino and working in Iraq. While here as QA Technician "i do test water and quality related not computer related" thats my job-to be specific, planning to take Master in Information System which is DL type. At the end of this year i will be 30yrs old and targeting this study to finish this year. Problem is I don't have much idea about this type of study. Please need your advice: -How long it will take for this study. -How much money will be involve to accomplished DL study "rough estimate will be fine". -Hours to spend for this study "i'm currently working 12 hrs/day" -Best strategy to accomplish this mission. -Is it reasonable in my age with luck of experince in Information Technology to take this study. Thank you in advance!
Well, if you work 12 hours a day, it takes you about 3 years to complete. The program costs is depending on from schools; it could be between $10,000.00 - $45,000.00. If you're working 12 hours per day, I recommend tot take 1 class per term. Since you have a BS in Computer Engineering, the Master in Information Technology doesn't help you much without experience. You mention you're Filipino, are you a citizen of Phillipine or United States? Anyway, check out University of Liverpool and Charles Sturt University.

Josep, you can check this list of (relatively) inexpensive regionally accredited programs: http://www.geteducated.com/online-college-ratings-and-rankings/best-buy-lists/best-buy-masters-computer-science-and-information-technology Keep in mind that the costs listed there are probably a bit out of date and are probably a bit higher than what's listed.
thanks emmzee. :-( sad because still not good for my budget. I found a Philippine base DL school http://www.upou.edu.ph/ which is ok for my budget. This school has good reputation in the philippines and well know. MIS is the only study they offer I think can help me. "yes, i'm not sure" pls advice. Heiks, If the MIS will not help me much. What do you suggest with my current situation? before I went here in Iraq, i got 3 yrs experience as an computer technician. being here is not long term for my carrer, thats why i'm preparing my self when i go back to my home country. Any good suggestion that will help me to shape my future is very much appreciated. Tnx.
