…. there are 100s of them if not nearing a 1000. Fact is, most colleges these days offer courses online and very many are now offering degrees wholly online. You aren’t restricted to the heavily advertised proprietary schools (but some are ok if you like them).

It’s not about online vs traditional — it’s all about the reputation of the school. Good school, good degree — bad school, useless degree.

I’ll note too – it doesn’t matter at all what people who have no degree think of any degree, they won’t be doing the hiring most likely.

Others are rip-off diploma mills.

Most are somewhere in between. There are a lot of issues with online education that haven’t started to be addressed; I taught online for years, but I’ve quit doing it now that I’m saddled with administrators who are ignorant and disrespectful of what happens in cyberspace. And then there are the places like University of Phoenix or Walden, where the faculty are almost all part-time and the tuition is enormous–they offer a decent quality of education, but at what a cost! when you could get full-time professors’ instruction at a fraction of the cost from an online program from a state college.

Now, there’s reliable research that many employers look at any degree earned primarily or entirely online with suspicion–if you earn a degree from one of the more noted online schools, you may have a harder time getting employed than you merit.
