If you are seriously thinking of a degree which is “recognized” by organisation be it in public or private, I recommend that you explore this website :http://www.petersons.com/

these you can search the online degree subject you want, but most important these online degree must be accredited by one of the 7 education association in USA, and not by any “known” Organization or you will only get cheated by getting a “degree mill” and bodies like government and military will not “recognised” these unaccredited degree, the 7 reliable bodies are:

1. Middle State Association of colleges and Schools

2. New England Association of Schools and Colleges

3. North Central Association of Schools and Colleges

4. Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges

5. Southern Association of Colleges and Schools

6. Western Association of Schools and Colleges

7. Distance Education and Training Council (for Universities that only offers distance learning programs)

Finally check out whether they have any supplement( or discount) , scholarship loan etc in the Peterson website, you will not go wrong when you explore it.

That depends on what you are majoring in. The best way to go about this is to enroll in a bonafide school:

DO NOT enroll in any for profit schools like UOP, AIU, ITT Tech, Kaplan, Capella etc.

Some great universities and colleges that are accredited with great online programs:

Indiana State University

Florida State University

California State Chico

New Mexico State University

Louisiana State University

Penn State

Michigan State University

University of New Mexico

California State University Dominguez

University of Maryland

Washington State University

University of Texas

University of Northern Iowa

This is just a small list. Notice that all of these colleges are real brick and mortar universities. I would check out what some of these programs have to offer, and maybe there is a school in your area that also has a distance program. If so, I would go that route because it wouldnt be quite as pricey. It will take you as long as youre willing to work for your degree. Since you have an A.A I would assume it would take 2.5-3 years.

I disagree with the first persons response. I currently attend University of Phoenix and will be graduating in October. I had no degree to start with and will complete my Bachelors after 3 years. The Masters program takes an additional 1 1/2, so after 4 1/2 years I will have my Masters. It does not take as long as a traditional University. They have a real campus and an online campus so you can decide which one you want to attend. UOP campus is 1 night a week or the online is 3-4 days a week. It actually cost the same as if you attend a major University but takes less time to graduate. I would rather pay the same money and graduate earlier. Your degree is the same as people attending a physical campus and will state Univeristy of Phoenix.

Since you already have your AA it would take less time since your credits can transfer.

I am in the same boat. I have an AAB and want to complete my education. I have looked around and many traditional schools offer online programs. I have decided to attend Palm Beach Atlantic. They have the best program and their price is good. I am starting in the fall.

Stay away from those who are completely done online-I have found some accreditation issues (U of Phoenix, FIT, etc.). If you do a Google search you should be able to locate many traditional schools, such as Palm Beach Atlantic University, that offer a 100% online degree. Right off the top of my head I can’t remember the other schools, but I was able to find a website via Google that listed schools that offer online degrees and was surprised at the number of traditional schools. PB Atlantic will actually be LESS that U of Phoenix and it is a good school. Good luck!

I disagree with ownpool that employers do no longer value ranges from UOP. That being suggested, i’m undecided that application engineering or networking may well be effectively taught on line. i might seem at considered one of their floor campuses. Or yet another floor situation.
