Any way to earn an advanced degree from a correspondence school or online?
A legitimate degree.

I know John Gray, author of Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus, earned his Ph.D. through a mail course -- but Columbia Pacific University closed its doors in 2001.

Anyone know of any institutions that still do that?

I would love to pursue a graduate degree, and it would be so much easier this way.

Thanks.

Btw, I think Gray's alma mater was questionable, legitimacy wise.
If I'm not mistaken CPU was an unaccredited shool that was barely more than a diploma mill.

Here's a couple links on distance ed:

http://www.degree.net/

This is the site of Dr. John Bear, the godfather of distance education.

http://bain4weeks.com/

This site lists acredited schools by price and subject.

Both sites are good places to start.
