Actually, I'm looking at Framingham State as well. I've been torn between their elementary ed and reading programs. It's my understanding that it's possible to take all of the courses in elementary ed online, but not in the reading program. I guess I need to follow through with the DOE to even see if it's an approved program. Thing is, I believe I have to go through the process of having it reviewed, which takes at least 6 - 8 weeks, and I really wanted to get started on my coursework this semester. Thanks again for responding. What program are you in? On 1/15/08, diploma mill wrote: > I believe Walden is one of those diploma mills - a company > that offers courses for profits.
