distance learning degree knowledge base

Best way to undertake a distance learning degree? I'm interested in doing an undergraduate degree in Physics, but I would like to do it self-study, as I have work commitments full time study isn't an option. How long is it likely to take distance learning? How often would I have to travel to the accrediting university to take exams? How much would it cost. Can anyone link me to any reputable universities that offer distance learning. I'm not bothered what country it is in so long as it is a country with well-regulated universities (such as UK, Australia, USA, etc). Thanks

Grateful for suggestions for completing distance learning degree.? I do some volunteer preaching and believe in studying the Bible to present worthwhile sermons at nursing home and small church that does not pay. I found a very reasonably priced distance learning seminary that has a program that has been very helpful. It is a lot better in my view than programs that teach more about denominational views and theological aspects of Christianity not mentioned in the Bible. My problem is lack of discipline. I listen to tapes, take notes, answer some of the questions, but just am not completing any classes. The distance learning course assignments can be faxed, e-mailed, or even sent by snail mail. Am a retiree with some health problems, my situation is not lack of time, but poor discipline. When younger completed traditional B.A., M.A., and Ph.D. in history. Maybe the awful unpleasantness of Ph.D. has left a paralyzing effect on me. I really want to get that seminary degree. Helpful suggestions would be blessing.
I am trying to decide on the final optional subject for my distance learning degree,and I cant make up my mind?

Can I do a subject I enjoy and then take a course in IP law later?

I want to pursue a degree in Nutrition. Should I pursue a degree via distance learning or on campus? Eastern Michigan University and Kaplan University offers a Bachelor's Degree in Nutrition, and other online colleges offer Master's, and even PHD degrees. It would save me the cost of transportation and living expenses, and I have been homeschooled over a cyber school, so I'm used to the whole online thing. The distance learning program requires real world experience in the field, so I would be doing hands on work as well. However, I don't know how jobs would view a distant learning degree and if they would still hire me as readily.

I am a Diploma Engg.,want to complete BBA thru ICFAI distance learning to get a degree. Will this be helpful? I am Diploma Engg., presently workin with a MNC for last 3yrs. I have realised, though late, that without getting a degree its very difficult to survive in any industry. At this stage thought to get a BE thru distance learning like YCMOU but then I find it too difficult to finish, so thought of doing BBA from ICFAI through distance learning. If I study hard and manage to complete BBA, I don't know that whether this will be helpful for me in future. I don't want to be in a situation that my degree is a waste. Also if I want to do some further study based on this degree abroad will it prove good.
