James' comment a couple of days ago touched on an aspect of online study that I'm quite interested in. For many people, going back to studying is a difficult task. It means not only do you have to relearn the study skills that you have not used for many years, you also need the confidence to study with people of different ages - something that can be difficult if you are older.
Online programs can allow you to engage in study at your own pace, and make mistakes that are not necessarily visible to other people in your study group. If you are older you are also likely to have more self-disciple, so making time for study is a matter of routine.
