Also keep in mind regionally accredited schools are often better then nationally accredited ones. Schools associated with well know brick and mortar institutions like Harvard’s “Harvard extension school” or NorthEastern University’s “Northeastern University school of proffesional and continuing studies” to name a few are great aswell.

Some great universities that offer online degrees include:

University of Massachusetts at Amherst

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

University of Denver

University of Maryland

Duke University

Drexel

Carnegie Mellon

Penn State

Ball State

U Nebraska – Lincoln

Babson

Worcester Polytechnic Institute

University of Illinois

Penn State

Colorado State U

And there are others. But in general, when you’re looking for a distance learning degree, try to find a program at a school that has a good reputation for their “brick and mortar” campus. So that doesn’t include those schools that are known for being online, like U of Phoenix, Strayer, Penn Foster, etc. So many employers actively dislike those degrees that I warn you to be cautious.

So also look at your own state colleges, and, if an associates is what you want, also your local community college. You may be surprised at what they offer online/via distance.

I’ll give you links to some articles about online schooling that can help you get started.

But note that many employers strongly prefer that you attended school in person. If you can do an on campus program, you should really look at them. In fact, your least expensive option re: college is your local community college, and your local state university.

Your best bet is to attend a local public college (even a community college) rather than go to an expensive on-line university that will do little for your future.

I simply typed “online college” into my aol and found many sites, some advertising, but some were analysis.

Start reading, and you will get a feel for the subject.

Best wishes.

This is a UK online university, but you can go the the US equiv
