Would it be the same if I go to apply to a job with a bachelors degree I earned online? Would employers look at the degree just as if I had earned the bachelors degree by attending college in person? Do employers look you as less because you earned the degree online?

(1) I intend to stay in the healthcare finance industry. Which graduate degree will be more beneficial for my career development (and possibly higher income) — getting a master’s (in public health) or MBA?

(2) For my undergrad degree, I graduated from a top national college. There are more nationally reputable online master’s programs than online MBA programs. Is it better to have the “name” than the type of graduate degree (MBA vs MPH)?

I’m thinking of going to Golden Gate University online program and when I’m done I will have two Masters Degrees one in finance and one in industrial psychology. The online degree is accredit by the WASC. I also have an undergraduate degree from a highly regarded institution. My work experience is relevant and somewhat impressive. I’m wondering if potential community colleges will discount my online degree? What will my prospects be like?
WASC = Western Association of Schools and colleges.

The Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) is one of six official academic bodies responsible for the accreditation of public and private universities, colleges, secondary and elementary schools in the United States and foreign institutions of American origin. The Western Association of Schools and Colleges has jurisdiction over the states of California and Hawaii, territories of Guam, American Samoa, Micronesia, Palau, Northern Marianas Islands, Pacific Rim, East Asia and areas of the Pacific and East Asia where American schools or colleges may apply to it for service.

thatdrummerguy42 asked:

Has anyone used any of the online schools to obtain a Master’s? Does anyone know how much they cost? I’m really interested in it, but I would probably have to tack on a few thousand to my student loans and that is not very appealing to me.
I graduated last year and already have a full time job, but I’d like to get my MBA or MPA. I actually work at the University I graduated from, but it does not offer Master’s programs and there is not an institution that does offer them within a few hundred miles. So, as of now, online looks pretty good, and the one’s I’ve been looking at are accredited.

Actually, I have limited access to the internet due to my present location in a rural area in Asia, but in the past I have tried severally to register online for a Master’s Degree Program in Enlgish Language online to no avail. I havent gotten any response yet. I need to get accurate information on the modalities. I possess a Higher National Diploma in Secretarial Administration, a TEFFL/TESOL Certificate as I am currently working as ESL Instructor.

While thanking you for your cooperation in this regard, I look forward to getting vital information with regards to my enquiry.
Could someone please me
tell how to register for an online Master’s Degree Course in English. Thanks a lot?
