I'm giving serious consideration to pursuing my Master's of Library Science degree online. My bachelor's degree in English just isn't cutting it for me financially, and getting my Masters online might be my best option to get out of this hole I've dug for myself. As it is right now, I have no transportation to go to the University of Maryland or Catholic University, the two closest library science schools, and I certainly don't have the money to take the train to get to either place, so online coursework would be the easiest thing for me. Plus I'd have an excuse to continue working only part-time here at the University of Baltimore while I worked on getting my MLS.

Yes, it would mean approximately $40,000 more in loans, which would probably work out to about $300 more a month a month in loan repayments when I finish the program, but I think I could swing it if I were making approximately $40,000 a year as a librarian.

Hmmm.

Drexel seems to have one of the better online MLS programs around. I want to get some more information before I jump in, but I'll probably be going with Drexel. I'm a little nervous about doing everything completely online though. Anyone have any experience with online classes?
