Does an Online College Degree have any Value?
The truth is, schools that are accredited offer diplomas that are really worthwhile. For geographic, financial, or quality of life (such as limited time) reasons, completing a legitimate degree online can be satisfactory. The majority of real universities do accept applications from potential students who have completed prior degrees online. This is true for both undergraduate and graduate-level candidates. According to Vicky Phillips, CEO of GetEducated.com, the hottest online university degree is the Master’s of Business Administration (MBA). More students are working on their MBA through an online university than for any other area of study that is offered by legitimate Internet-based institutions. As with any business, there are many competitors and scam artists trying to get in on the action. Scam universities are popping up all over the Internet and in some cases, it is difficult to stop them. There are clear differences between legitimate online degrees and fake diplomas.
