Online Schools & Online Degrees
    #21899733 - 07/05/15 05:07 AM (8 years, 6 months ago)

Do employers smile or frown upon online degrees?

Have any of you gotten in the correct door sought for w/ an online degree?

Are online schools expensive?

Depends on the degree.

ASU offers an ABET accredited online engineering degree.  It costs around 40k IIRC.  It would probably be one of the most marketable online degrees you can get.


I think the catch is most people think doing an online degree like that will be easier, but I think it will be harder.

At the bare minimum, at least it says to an employer that you care enough about your future to dedicate time in pursuing a goal. That means something.

You ask about expense... one can always make more cash. You may lose a little now, but it will make up for itself exponentially if you truly dedicate yourself to a pursuit that you find worth doing. Just try and not hurt anybody along the way.

Know that one doesn't need a degree to be successful, but it sure can help some people. Be sure to choose the right field and try to give back to the community. Remember that cash is only paper. Real happiness comes from within.

Where I live, they're not taken seriously save for degrees from a select few of institutions of long standing and verified reputation, but even they are not considered on par with regular degrees. This undoubtedly has to do with the easy access of the entire population to higher education; I think the reasoning is that if you fail to make use of that opportunity, there is ample reason to doubt your capacities.
