I also agree that Bristol is excellent - but I'd never suggest that you do distance learning if you have the time and money to do it full-time. It can be very difficult to keep the rate of progress up... I'm doing ok so far, but only after a conscious effort to get back on track after taking a couple of days off once or twice. If full-time is an option, don't even look at Bristol.

I've also heard good things about OATS, but no first-hand experience - except that out of all the schools I contacted for information, they were the slowest getting information to me - but not so slow that I'd be worried. (In any case, this is more of an issue for distance learning - probably not a issue for full-time, since you'll be in daily contact with instructors anyway.)

Good luck!
