You're never to young to learn, besides it keeps your mind sharp.

The hardest part is getting started again. These days its getting easier to find a respectable school "online".

Check out Western Governors University.

http://www.wgu.edu/

Not sure what degree you are interested in pursuing but this may be right up your ally. Their tuition structure is unique and very affordable compared to other Universities who offer "Online" courses.

This how I plan on finishing up my 4yr degree.

Good Luck!

UOP is a good online school and they are primarily one of the schools who made it more main stream get a degree online. BUT they are expensive. Check out this chart for a cost comparison of WGU and UOP.

What's really cool about WGU is you can do as much as you want in a 6 month period and because its based on a flat rate, the more courses you complete per 6 month period the cheaper it is to complete your degree.

This is great for me because credit wise I'm very close already and my real world experience would allow me to move at a faster pace than a tradition class room. Throw in the fact that ALL of your Microsoft Certifications are included and its a STEAL!

A good friend of mine graduated from there and my stepdaughter is taking courses now as a highschool senior.

My wife likes it. Just seems to be taking a lot longer for her than me. I got my ABA in a little under a year because of all of my military credits..I started my bachelors in CJ earlier this year and I'll be done next July. Can't beat accelerated programs :D
