What is a good online university ?

University of Phoenix is pretty good, but you have to realize the limitations of the medium.  I found it pretty frustrating in that they want you to work in teams, and people are in different time zones.  Also, the kind of people who attend an on-line university are busy people, and perhaps people who haven't traditionally had a lot of commitment to their education, so that makes their commitment to the team kind of questionable.

Yes, there are some very good online colleges.  I am in the military and stationed overseas.  A lot of military members are completing their educations this way.\n\nYour degree will be recognized and you can use financial aid!\n\nI received my Bachelors Degree in 2004 this way.\n\nHere are a few Colleges I would recommend that offer online courses:\n\nUniversity of Maryland University College / Bowie State University\n\nUniversity of Oklahoma\n\nUniversity of Phoenix\n\nBest of luck on your pursuit of higher education!

Where prestige is concerned, individuals may still look down on people with online degrees, but companies are starting realize that people with online degrees aren't that different from those with traditional degrees. I think where you got your degree doesn't matter, as long as you know what your stuff. I know lots of people that spent 4 years in college and came out knowing nothing.\n\nA lot of them aren't accredited. Basically anyone with a website can say they're running an online university. However, some of them are actually just as good or better than traditional universities. You just have to do your research and make sure the one you choose is accredited. Find out what agency gave them their accreditation, what other schools are accredited by agency, make sure the education officials in the state where their home office is based has actually heard about them. Basically, cover all your bases.\n\nThe one I keep hearing about and seeing around is the University of Phoenix, so you might want to check them out. Maybe by doing some research on them might give you info on other online universities. \n\nAlso, many traditional universities are starting to catch on and are offering online classes, so you might want to chech that out as well.

The other responses are incorrect. There are many reputable online schools. University of Phoenix Online and University of Maryland Online both offer fully online courses for full college credit with affordable rates. University of Phoenix even offers three week courses. If you are taking the classes for any kind of licensure, you need to check with the licensing agency FIRST to make sure they accept the class.

Some are just as good as any other.  If from a quality university then it will have value.  It is better to attend class but if you can;t then on line is a good way to go.  Be sure to know about the university offering the course.  There are some out there that are nothing but scams so beware.

There are some reputable, brick and mortar (i.e., "real") universities that offer degrees via distance learning. Some of these universities are very, very good: Oxford University (UK), University of Massachusetts at Amherst, University of Maryland, Carnegie Mellon, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and there are others. \n\nIn general, if you plan to pursue an online/distance learning degree, you'll get more bang for your buck if you get the degree from a university, like those above, which also have a strong on-campus degree program, because it's true - lots of employers frown on online degrees if they are from an online-only school, or a school that has a poor academic reputation in general. \n\nIn general, I would not recommend a distance degree to just anyone. If you can go to an on-campus program, your chances of actually completing the degree program are higher. Employers also tend to frown on some of the online programs. \n\nHowever, not all of us have the freedom in our lives to be able to get to a campus location - and if that's your situation, then a distance learning degree may be your only option. But if you decide to do distance learning, take it from me - I used to be a recruiter - and definately make sure it's accredited, and also only consider degrees from universities that have a good overall academic reputation. And definately, unless you have no other options, do not attend an "online-only" school.

check to see how they are accredited but most of them aren't and your degree wont be worth the paper its printed on.\n\nmy school is a normal university that will offer some classes online, call your local university and see if they have the same thing.

An on-line degree can be just as valuable as one earned through a traditional, on-campus degree program--if the on-line program is sponsored by an accredited/credentialed college or university that has a solid reputation.  \n\nThe question really should be whether an on-line program can meet your specific educational needs as well as a  traditional program.  Before you rush off to enroll, stop a moment and consider whether or not virtual learning is right for you.\n\n\nIs the class or program of study offered by an accredited university?\nDoes this university have a solid reputation in the field in which you will pursue your coursework or degree?\nWhat sort of training do the instructors have?\nHow long will it take to complete a course or program of study?\nAre all of the classes taught on-line or will you need to attend a real classroom some of the time?\nIs the class taught in real-time (meaning you'd have to log on during specific hours/times/days), or is time management up to me?\nHow much will it cost me?\nAnd, finally, is there any financial aid available to me?\n\nIf, after working through these questions, you're satisfied with your answers, an on-line degree program may well be a good match for you.\n\nGood luck!

Yes,there are many better choices than UoP. If you are interested I would advise you to visit Degree Discussion (http://www.degreediscussion.com/forums/) there are lots of people there who can help you. There is a lot of bad things being said about UoP and the way it operates. There are cheaper and more reasonable Online Marketing programs.\nFor example :\nBaker College (http://www.bakercollegeonline.com/index.cfm/degreeonline-program)\n\nRegis University\n(http://www.mbaregis.com/degrees_mbamktg.asp)\n\nUniversity of North Alabama\n(http://www2.una.edu/business/mba/index.html)\nor\n(http://www.columbiasouthern.edu/UNA/programs/marketing.html)\n\nThere are plenty more..that are at least as "affordable" as UoP, One thing to make sure is that all Colleges and Universities you consider are Regionally Accredited (if In the USA). You may or may not choose to go for Professional Accreditation(AACSB) but that is more about choice then acceptability(please note the only Professionally Accredited school I listed was the University of North Alabama and they are not accredited by AACSB by the lesser known ACBSP.) I would really recommend the Degree Discussion message board, a lot of people who have vast distance learning(DL) experience.

Online degree programs are great for being efficient. You can usually work more at your own pace and are not dependent on being at a specific location. This saves you a lot of time and makes it easier for you to keep working while being in school.  Also, many schools handle assignments, notes, discussions, and quizzes over the web. This means that you can work and participate anywhere with an Internet connection, and turn in your assignments at any time of the day.\n\nThere are many benefits to get a degree online vs. in a traditional classroom setting. Here's a site with a lot more great information on some quality online schools and programs:\n\nhttp://www.college-scholarship-hound.com/index.php?t=onlineschools\n\nGood luck to you in your search!

Online is not necessarily cheaper. Also, there are good online  programs out there, but you have to be very careful about choosing one. Like any program, some are better than others. However, if you don't have the time or ability to get to a live classroom a few times a week, then I would persue an online degree. Also, if financial aid is an option, then online will work equally as well as traditional courses.

Usually, not very well. \n\nMost "online" schools don't have good reps. Consider your options carefully. \n\nThere are reputable, "brick and mortar" schools that offer degrees online. Their good reputation for their on-campus programs will flow over into their online program. \n\nSo to be quite blunt, an online OR an offline degree from U Phoenix, or Devry, or ITT, will only get you so far, because the reputations of these schools isn't the greatest. A degree of any sort from UMass Amherst, or U Nebraska Lincoln, or U Maryland, will likely be seen as more acceptable by more employers, and may, therefore, get you further. \n\nSome great universities that offer online degrees include:\n\nUniversity of Massachusetts at Amherst\nRensselaer Polytechnic Institute\nUniversity of Denver\nUniversity of Maryland\nDuke University\nDrexel\nCarnegie Mellon\nPenn State\nBall State\nU Nebraska - Lincoln\nBabson\nWorcester Polytechnic Institute\nUniversity of Illinois\n\nAnd 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.
