[quote=Anonymous]You might also look into CLEPing some courses to fulfill requirements cheaply.  That's what I did to get a recent master's.  CLEP stands for College Level Examination Program.  For $100, you can take a test to obtain (at many schools) undergraduate credits.  It's definitely the most educational bang for the buck.  I took, and passed, College Level Math, Algebra, Geography, Psychology, and General Science, which satisfied almost all of the undergraduate credits I needed to obtain a master's in education (my undergraduate degree was in English, and almost all the other courses I took were in French or Art History).

I also took several courses at a local community college (statistics, computer science).  These were much cheaper than comparable courses offered by the University of Phoenix.

I don't recommend doing your master's level courses in education online.  You learn more from your face-to-face interaction with your peers and professors (and in the classroom) than from reading or studying independently.  [/quote]
