Are online colleges as expensive as public colleges?
Online colleges are usually one of your most expensive options. The only exception to that is if your local community colleges or state colleges offer online degrees – then, you may get the lower, in-state tuition even though you’re doing it online. But in general, online schooling is more expensive than going to in-person classes. In every case, your local community college will *always* be your least expensive option. CCs are cheap in the first place, and then you get the lower, state resident tuition, which makes them even cheaper. It will be much, much, MUCH cheaper to attend your local cc than to go to U of P, for example. U of P is far from cheap. It’s nearly as expensive as Harvard.
