It is a private university. You study by distance learning. It is flexible. Good for studying. Remember to attend the exam for the subject. I know for each subject is around S$ 1250. You can pay by instalments for each subject or take out a loan. The best is to obtain a scholarship. Good luck.

Goto a community college or local university.
If you just do a little research on the web, you will find U of P is not the best choice.
Its a for profit university, theres been accusations of financial aid scams and some employers will not hire you because an online degree is not held in the same regard as a degree from a regular university.
Its most likely cheaper to attend a community college or local university than U of P anyways.

I don't have a degree from them, but I do know several people who have achieved degrees from Uof P. And some of them are in the field you want to get into.
I believe the average cost of a Bachelors degree is around 12-15,000. The school is legitimate and is approved by the Dept. of Education, etc.. I don't think they have payment plans, but I don't know for sure. Usually student loans pay for the education.
You work pretty much independently, meeting once every six weeks with your group. You take a new class every six weeks so you really need to be able to retain quite a bit of info.
Everyone that I have talked to loves it because they can completed a Bachelors in less than 15 months, usually.
I know that if I had the money to attend, I would choose them over any other school on the web.

It's a for-profit piece of crap school. I have two words for you when it comes to getting a degree from UoP: DIPLOMA MILL.
If you want a McDegree where no real, decent employer will take you seriously, then go for it. Otherwise, consider part-time education at a community college or university.
