I'm actually enrolled at U of PHX right now and having a blast. I've  
been taking classes with them since Sept. I figured since I already  
have a career in IT I don't need CS. I'm going ahead to get my degree  
in psychology. They accepted 90% my transfer credits from when I was  
18 and in a real college so I should have my bachelors in psychology  
by January 2011. As someone who is a traveling consultant type and  
living out of hotel rooms it makes good sense for me. Instead of mind- 
numbing TV in the hotel at night I "go to school" and do homework.

Another place that is reasonable, depending on the exchange rate, is  
the University of London. http://www.londonexternal.ac.uk/ ...  
University of London degree. I was thinking about a Masters in Economy  
after I'm done with my bachelor's and was joking looking at the LSE  
distance learning, except LSE doesn't offer graduate degrees for  
distance learning.
