In my experience, I'm going to agree with Duane. My current employer as well as the career I'm looking at getting into don't fully recognize a degree from online schools.

I say fully bc if you have a degree from there you will be placed above those without degrees, however you won't be placed with others who have an equivalent degree from an acredited school. And that's where the difference comes. It's not an accredited school, of you got there and get a BA it won't be recognized by other institutions, e.g. If you went to a CSU or UC to get an MA you would have to redo your BA degree.

Not to discourage you Mean D but if you want to do online try to do it through an accredited school, IF that's what you're after, if you're just trying to get a degree and an extra line on your portfolio then go for it! It's all up to you and what you want from it
