I've taken many courses at home but for Math, English, Business etc. You should be able to reach out to the college and ask if the credits will go towards your degree. If it's just for fun and is cheap, go for it

I've thought about doing the same thing. The community college here offers some night classes a couple times a week, but I just keep putting it off. Like you said, it's relatively inexpensive too, so that's a major plus when you've got a family. I'm not sure that I'd get as much out of an at home class as I would a hands on class, but that's just me. Maybe try and talk to some people that have taken a similar class and see if they got anything out of it. I'm sure you'll figure something out! :)

If you want to do it for yourself then go for it. If you want collage credit make sure you use a colleges online class or it may not count later.

What are you planning on doing with these photos?
If it's just for your own interest there are a number of books you can read about photography. The thing about taking a course is the feedback you will get from the instructor and the other students. If you are planning on using this course as a way of getting some kind of job it's probably best to go to a community college where you will get college credits for your work and can use them towards a degree of some sort. |

Learning photography really needs to be a "hands on" course - you will NOT get the full benefit of doing it online/from home. You need the feedback and the face-to-face interaction. Photography is a bit of science, but mostly art and you cant effectively learn the craft online. You really need the instant feedback you get in a classroom setting. It will behoove you to do this in a classroom setting - I can't stress this enough. (I've been into photography for 30+ years, doing journalist work in the Navy and have taught individual classes every now and then, and do work on the side) |

Some community colleges are now offering online classes. If you want credit for taking a course, check out your local community college.
If you don't want credit, check out the adult education classes in your school district. |

$600 seems kinda pricey
most colleges have adult education classes in all kinds of subjects and cost more around $100 I would try that |

 $600 for a course! That's too much unless you are taking it at a 4-year college or university!

(I've been into photography for 30+ years, doing journalist work in the Navy and have taught individual classes every now and then, and do work on the side) I agree, alot of courses are better taken in class, with several "hands on" opportunities. Photography is one of them. |

photography is really "hands on'
take a community college adult ed. course should not cost so much that you need a loan!
