If Devry and U Phoenix are really your only two options, I think Devry has a better rep with employers. Go to Devry. The education there tends to be more practical. \n\nHowever, I don't think those are your only choices. While it's true that you need to get your degree via distance learning, look into schools that have better reputations - schools that have good reps as brick and mortar universities, and which also offer degree programs online. \n\nSome great universities that offer online degrees include:\n\nUniversity of Massachusetts at Amherst\nRensselaer Polytechnic Institute\nUniversity of Denver\nUniversity of Maryland\nCarnegie Mellon\nPenn State\nBall State\nU Nebraska - Lincoln\nWorcester Polytechnic Institute\n\nAnd there are others. In fact, contact your own state college, or check their website. They may offer an online degree. If they do, then you'll not only get your degree, but you'll also pay instate tuition - a huge plus. \n\nGood luck!

That depends on what you're looking for.  What kind of resources does Devry have (library, labs, etc.).  What about the faculty? How many hold terminal degrees?  Do they publish?  \nHow long have they held tenure?\n\nAnd most important, what accredations do they hold?  This will be relevant if you want to go on for graduate work, or are looking to apply CPEs.

How about ASU?  You should be able to get into there.  You also might be able to get into USC - but it's very expensive.

I agree with the above - U. of Phoenix but its really important that whatever one you do attend, to check its accreditation.  Go to the website of a normal respectable university find out what accreditation it holds and then call the online university and see if they hold the same one.  Your degree will be more or less useless if you dont have one that is accredited by a respectable university.

It is a legitimate school, and if you apply yourself, you will get a good education there. However, you asked how employers view U Phoenix, and I'll reply - poorly. \n\nAn MBA, even more than most other degrees, is usually one that people get in order to advance their careers. Consider your options carefully. \n\nIf it is impossible for you to go to another school - even another online school that's hooked to a more reputable "brick and mortar" university - in other words, if U Phoenix is your only practical choice, then go for it. But if you have the opportunity to attend a university with a better rep, then do so. \n\nSome great universities that offer online degrees include:\n\nUniversity of Massachusetts at Amherst\nRensselaer Polytechnic Institute\nUniversity of Denver\nUniversity of Maryland\n\nI'm not sure which of these offer online/distance learning MBAs, but all are good schools and worth investigating.\n\nGood schools that I know for sure that offer distance MBAs include:\n\nDuke University\nDrexel\nCarnegie Mellon\nPenn State\nBall State\nU Nebraska - Lincoln\nThunderbird (really intriguing program)\nBabson\nWorcester Polytechnic Institute\n\nA highly respected business school - one of the top in the US - which does offer distance MBAs is Duke University. \n\nThunderbird's program is also fairly highly ranked, has a good rep, and is intriguing. \n\nThe UMass program seems quite flexible. \n\nGood luck.

Online PhDs? Unless it's in computer science from Carnegie Mellon, I wouldn't bother. But online Master's? There are some from some reputable universities (U Phoenix NOT being one of them), most usually in business or computers. So, what do you hope to major in?\n\nSome examples of reputable schools that offer some Master's degrees online include:\n\nNYU\nUMass Amherst\nRensselaer Polytechnic Institute\nCarnegie Mellon\nDuke University\nUniversity of Indiana\nUniversity of Maryland\nThe New School for Social Research

Both are good schools.  But neither are known for engineering programs.  They both deliver top notch educations.\n\nYour best bet is to visit each campus for a weekend or few days, meet some of the faculty and see which culture you like the best!

Degree Mill? Waste of time? I don't think so. Have any of you people attended an on-line university? \n\nThe University of Phoenix is an Accredited College and Yes, your credits transfer to other colleges!! \n\nThe University of Phoenix is geared to working adults and is used by many of the top Organizations in the U.S. I just received my BSIT Degree in June and let me tell you the classes are intensive and you certainly need to know how to read, write and be self disciplined!! \n\nIf you are going to college to party and have a good time this certainly is not the college for you. You have to attend 5 days a week and you have to post a vast amount of papers and projects in those 5 days! \n\nPaper Mill, you have to be joking!! I worked long and hard for 4 years for my Bachelors degree. I took all the normal classes that any college student would have to take. The only difference is I did not meet my fellow students. I was however, able to attend college, work full time and take care of my three children. UOP is focused on WORKING ADULTS who know how to discipline themselves! Yes the University of Phoenix is a good school!! And Yes, I plan on going back for my Masters Degree within the next year! I would highly recommend it!!

The University of Dallas is best known for its Computer Science and Engineering programs and has a undergrad/grad enrollment ratio of about 9:5 with about 15,000 students and 627 faculty.\n\nPortland State University is best known for its business programs and has an undergrad/grad enrollment ratio of about 17:6 with about 23,000 students and 509 faculty.\n\nI don’t think either school is “ranked” so to speak in terms of the quality of their graduate programs but the above info should give you an idea. \n\nI would try to talk to engineering students at both schools and see how they’ve enjoyed their experiences there. \n\nPersonally I would rather live in the Pacific Northwest but I think UTD is probably a better school so it would be something of a tradeoff for me.\n\nRegards,\nArmus

No, University of Phoenix is a corporation--not really a school at all.  If you are planning to obtain a bachelor's or master's degree, your best bet is to go to a REAL university that actually has a campus (not just offices here and there across the country) and has a valid history of several decades.
