I thought it was University of Phoenix but I was recently informed that they were fined over a million dollars because of unethical practices of their online ed. division. I don't know for sure that this is true but a co-worker told me this.

I go to U of Phoenix. They are accredited and well known. Student loans should cover a lot of your costs and it allows you to do your work when you have time. I haven't heard about their being fined, but I have never seen anything unethical. Most of the teachers are great and very accessible. Even though it is on line, you will have great discussions in the classroom

Actually, most are sold from Dubai. But if you already know it's fake and worthless, just print one up yourself on your computer - it's worth exactly as much (absolutely nothing) and a lot cheaper. But keep in mind it's illegal in many states to claim you have a degree if you don't, and buying one is not a legal degree. So have fun in jail.

I obtained my BA in Psychology from Thomas Edison State College. www.tesc.edu. Just make sure whatever schools you are looking at are regionally accredited. National accreditation means absolutely nothing. A great website with legitimate colleges offering online programs is www.geteducated.com .

My son is attending the University of Central Florida. He found out some of their degrees are 90% online. These are the universities you want your BA from. Not a University of Phoenix thing.

I would recommend the following Online Schools:
Capella - Regionally Accredited
UOP - Regionally Accredited
DeVry - Regionally Accredited
CCi - Nationally Accredited
Regionally accredited schools are better!

Hmmmm, I don't know about that.... I wouldn't just drop them for that. UOP is a good school, and I know several people with degrees from them, a bit pricey, but don't go elsewhere if you are not sure about this detail. Also, please note, that in the realm of the business that they do, $1Mil is just change to them. I've not heard of this and I'm sure it would have been publicized a little more.

Don't touch purely online Universities with a barge pole. Their degrees aren't worth the paper they're printed on.

my friend got her BA from an online college (based in NJ?) called Thomas Edison. Try googling it and see what you get. Also, she's currently using her degree!
