The following work briefly presents a research project that aims at identifying barriers obstructing distance education. The research was conducted on the overall number of 158 distance students. The comparative group consisted of 430 traditional students. The attention was focused on the problems associated with Internet studies and there was a comparative analysis conducted on the perception of described factors by e-learning and traditional students (day and weekend studies). The results suggest that factors commonly perceived as the main disadvantages of distance studies are not more onerous than for traditional students.
