Degrees Online

Gurutree asked:

I am considering either The Art Institute Online or Westwood College Online. I really want to be able to get into the industry so that I can one day get a team together to make my own massive multiplayer RPG. I have some really great ideas that haven’t been thought of, and I just want to get my foot in the door. I figure getting a degree will get me a portfolio that I can take to a company and get hired on a game design team for whatever. Maybe that will get my foot in the door?

Has anyone here taken gotten a good job through one of these online game design courses? I really need online courses so that I can work while I go to school.

Has anyone got a bachelors degree online and than went on to a regular college for a masters. If so where did you get your masters? When you transfer to a regular college do they look down on online degrees?

My husband is in the U.S. Air Force Reserves and he already has his Associates degree. He wants to get his Bachalors so he can become an officer. We are unable for him to attend a physical college so he must do it online. Anyone in the military that can suggest a good online college to us.

I’m not good with long standardized tests. Will I have to submit GED scores? I also only have a 2.5 GPA from my B.A. degree. Will that prevent me from getting enrolled. I screwed up on some science course that brought my GPA down, but I’m not dumb. I want to learn and get a good career. Also, are online colleges cheaper to take? And how long is a Master’s Program? Thank you for answering. Online courses just make me a little skeptical with the way people rip you off these days.

I’m looking for an online college for my son. I have come across many. Has anyone tried to get a degree online? Does anyone know anything about Westwood College? How about others? Is this a worthwhile effort (getting a degree online) versus attending a college?

I have decided to go for my masters. I want it to be the cheapest, easiest, fastest, online degree possible?
I live in Florida. I have decided to pursue a Masters degree. I haven’t narrowed it down yet but it will most likely be one of these three; Special Ed, Ed leadership, or Psychology. My Bachelor’s is in Psych. I have a teaching cert for both Psych and Special Ed.(ESE). I am finishing my sixth year of teaching ESE at the high school level. I am currently studying to take the middle grades integrated curriculum exa, which will earn me certifications in math, science, english and social studies. I get emails most every day from universities trying to recruit me. Now that you know a little about me, I would appreciate a bit of advice. To be honest, I want this to be as quick and painless as possible. I also know there are schools out there that meet my requirements, I just haven’t searched for them yet. Please help. Thanks!

Scullytheparrot asked:

I am almost finished with my Bachelors degree in History. I would like to continue on and get my masters in History. I am interested in American Public University’s (APU) History program. But can I get a legitimate masters degree from a fully online institution, that when Im finished I would be able to get a job teaching at a community college? APU is fully accredited but Im leary because the only information about them I can find is on their website. It seems like nobody has heard of them. Any help would be appreciated!
