Project Gutenberg for a ton of texts, many in the original latin or greek alongside english so youll know what the fuck.
All you have to do is Google what an education of this type would entail, and then just search the web for the books and commentaries on the books.

It's too late for you if you weren't taught Latin and Greek at a prep school.

You should read the classics in the original languages, i.e. Koine Greek and Latin. In other words, you will have to learn a new language with no living speakers to read.
Learn French to read statecraft texts.
Learn German to read autistic philosophy.
Good luck

Yes but not all offer the course.
You can probably teach yourself though. Find and complete a good text book (I recommend Athenazde but the options are endless), then pick up a grammar and lexicon, and start reading Xenophon, or maybe the Book of John. By the time you're through book one you'll be ready to start picking through mostly anything.
A warning : Ancient Greek is rather difficult, so prepare for a difficult road. Lots of strange verb tenses and the idiom isn't as similar to ours as even Latin. The rewards are plentiful however!
