Online degrees

I know SNHU is legit. I know a few people with degrees from there.

Personally I’d go to a local community college and finish there lol

Didn’t know CCs had 4 year degrees

Not my opinion, but I've had a hiring manager tell me that he dumps applicants that have degrees from the University of Phoenix. I don't know why, maybe a bad experience with a graduate? Not sure about the others.

University of Phoenix was controversial because the course format was totally different from what was traditional, and they had not central campus.

Today many schools have adopted the Phoenix format fort their courses. Including ULL’s online MBA.

There are very few universities that don’t offer online degrees of some type, even Harvard and MIT, especially graduate programs.

One does not necessarily follow the other. Do you know SNHU is legit for other reasons or only b/c you know some people that went there.

I know someone who went to University of Phoenix who would tell you it was a legit school too. I, however, know she is dumb as a fricking brick so I take her degree with a grain of salt.

If I was in HR and looking at a resume from one of these online universities, I would be very skeptical.

because its common sense and smart

if they are too frickin lazy to get out of bed, get dressed and drive/walk to school, then they are for damn sure too fricking lazy to show up for work and do anything

yes there are a few legit cases people dont have time to go to school in person, but so what, you are the one choosing the path that causes you to be lumped in with the lazy arse iwants if you do that so you must accept it

If its an online grad degree in certain fields that you are doing while working in said field, yes. Not sure about undergrad. I'm sure with the covid virtual stuff there might be a shift in perception on that though.

ETA: certain fields and degrees from certain schools.

All you need to know is if the institution is accredited by an accreditor approved by the USDOE. Beyond that it's preferred that the accreditor also has membership in the Council on Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA).

If so the degree will meet the qualification for a commission in any of the US Armed Forces or civil service job. Boom! All you need to know. Any private employer or institution of higher learning has the right not to accept a degree for graduate school admission or transfer credit.

You are a sidewalk fan so you tell us about online degrees.
