Do some colleges offer long distance learning for history PhD students?

- no i dont know sorry
- Yes there are a lot of distance learning schools available offering doctoral degrees in history. Try University of Phoenix Online. You can also use a database search for doctoral degrees and you may be able to find around 5 other schools offering. You have to be selective in picking the school you want to go to and make sure it is not a diploma mill.
- No regionally accredited universities do this. This is because a doctoral program requires close mentoring, and a community of peers. History research requires archival familiarity, and this certainly cannot be acquired from the comfort of one's living room. Bottom line: Doctoral-level studies cannot be replicated, or even approximated, online. Any institution that claims to be able to do this is fleecing students, because such a degree would never be accepted in academic circles.
- Listen to Professor X. I have nothing to add.
