Just thinking about transportation, housing and clothing makes it probable that you'll save money by getting an online education. It's becoming more and more common. If you have children, you won't have to worry about child care or stop and pick up dinner on the way home from classes.
Costs associated with online universities (besides your internet connection) are limited to actual tuition and study materials. Study materials can sometimes be found online for no cost at all. Which university is the big question.It's best to go to the site of each one you may be interested in and check carefully.
Email them, ask all the questions that come to mind, and keep in mind that all credits are not necessarily transferable if you decide to switch schools or to continue in a brick and mortar school. Some employers may offer tuition reimbursement, but some won't. Ask your employer directly.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
