If you are accepted to an online college, it means that you will be able to do everything online, so you will need to have a regular internet connection for a program like this. This also means that you do not need to study from hard copy books, because all of the books that you will need are also available for download. This is a real space saver and good for the environment too.
The benefit of distance education learning is that you don't need to come into classes at all. You can study in your own time and your hours are as flexible as you want. This means that if you already have a full time job, you can still study something that you have always wanted to. You can earn while you learn and eventually leave for a better job once you have your degree.

Distance courses are usually cheaper than full time universities and you don't have to worry about the extra books and materials needed for a full time college.
