If not University of Phoenix for my degree, than who?
After reading the New York Times article about UOP’s recent legal troubles, lack of accreditation, student abuses, and fraud, my mind about them has thankfully been changed before I spent a dime. I will not be applying as I had planned.
But I do want to get a new degree. I am looking for a career shift, and was thinking of accounting. My work schedule doesn’t allow me the ability to take traditional classes in a brick and mortar facility.
Do any of you know of a respectible institution that offers an online bachelors degree in accounting? Thanks.
You can earn your degree through “distance education” from a completely reputable state university.
The links below are the absolute best you will find. They contain more links to many well-respected state university distance education programs.
I would advise you to start by looking at your own state university system and check to see if they offer the programs and courses in which you are interested. If not, check out those of other states.(Pennsylvania and Maryland have great systems, for instance.) A degree from a state university will be recognized and respected as authentic by employers and academics everywhere.
