Online Bachelor's degrees and I am currently going to a
community college, but am not
sure about where to go for my
bachelors. I am thinking of
doing an online degree,
however, I would like to go to
law school when i'm done with
the Bachelor's degree. Would
me having a B.A/B.S from an
online school hinder my
chances of getting into law
school? I'm not looking to get
into Harvard or anything, just
Rutgers in NJ. Thanks!

If you are interested in online courses, you need to go to an accredited university. There shouldn't be any reason for Rutgers to reject your online course work if it is done at a regular university or college. I know from experience because I am taking courses online in a bachelors/masters program at the University of North Texas and I have taken online courses at the local community college. Also, the belief that online degrees are for the lazy is actually a big misconception. Getting an online degree requires a lot of self-discipline, and in most cases is actually harder than a regular, on-campus degree. The workload is higher and often the content of most online courses is harder and more exhaustive. Here's another university to consider up near your neck of the woods: MIT offers a far more comprehensive selection of free online courses than other universities — nearly its entire undergraduate and graduate curriculum. Downloading materials takes minutes. A newsletter highlights new offerings, from Quantum Physics to American Women Authors. www.ocw.mit.edu |

Associate of Arts and looking

Usually, cheapest and best don't work in the same sentence. Especially not when we're talking about schools. Take a look at the Ohio University Bachelor of Specialized Studies http://www.ouorc.ohio.edu/menu /rhp/bd/specialized-studies.ht m and see if that meets your needs. Peru State College http://www.peru.edu/online/ind ex.htm#.htm has a solid reputation and their fees are very reasonable. They offer a BS in Psych online. American Military University (you don't have to be military) http://www.amu.edu is well under $300 a semester hour and they offer a bachelor's in psychology. UMass http://www.umassonline.net/deg rees/NewPsychologyDegree.html has a BA in Psychology online and they have a "best" reputation but they aren't "cheap". Whatever you select - make sure the school has a solid reputation and that it is regionally accredited. |

That is a very broad question, as there are various methods of online instruction. However, for the most part it involves the use of individual and group written assignments such as papers, discussions conducted in an online board. These methods are asynchronous, meaning you attend at various times that may be different from others. Other more advanced institutions are using webcasting, podcasting, PowerPoint voiced lectures, live chats, etc. Having been in this industry for over 5 years as an instructor and before as a student, I have seen this method of facilitation of course grow significantly through the years taking advantage of the newest technology in most cases. I have been involved with nearly 10 different institutions at different capacities as a consultant, course developer, and instructor. The principal advantage is flexibility, but such advantage requires personal discipline (the main disadvantage). If the course is done properly, the instructor is involved and available to you daily. This may not be at the same time you are, but the response to your questions should come within 24 hours. Online courses tend to vary in price, so we could say they are more expensive, but that is relative. Of course they are more expensive that a community college, but less expensive than Harvard. The price range varies. Suggestions for selecting online schools The key is to make sure the college/university is accredited. I have three basic recommendations for everyone looking into online/distance education. They all have to do with exploring; after all, you have to defend your assets. 1. Make certain that you have triple checked their accreditation. First, they tell you what it is, then you go to that accrediting body’s website (not through the link provided by the school), and thirdly you would visit the department of education to see what they have to say. Do your diligent research into the institutions once you have narrowed down to a couple. You can look at the Better Business Bureau for more information on the college. 2. You must have extreme self motivation and be able to teach yourself per say. This means that you will not have someone telling you verbally, so it is up to you to get the information from the course room, text, and other resources. The best way to look at it is like a guided independent study course. 3. Review your goals, personal and professional. Make sure that the school that you are going to offers the programs that match your goals. Do not settle. There are many programs that are similar, but you have to make the ultimate decision. Do not let it be based on finances and length of program, but the fact that when you are finished or near finished you will be able to assume your proper place in the career field sought. You should market yourself and not the degree or university. There are many traditional universities offering degrees that can be earned through online methods. Distance Learning Alliance has a list of these traditional online schools. Look at that if you are truly concerned with the name of the school. Good luck on your search! |
