davewms66 asked:

I’m interested in persueing a BS through an online college. I have contacted a few and discussed classes, books, fees, and various other things concerned. All of them seem ok but how do I know for sure who I’m talking to and if they are on the up and up?

      For accredidation status first after that find out if you need to do group work how often you are expected to do group work how often you are expected to attend.

      Try discussing stuff over the phone. Does a phone number match up to where they say they are located? Every place should have at least a central office.

      Try completing a websearch to see if there are reviews of the online university. That way you can get a picture of what other people thought of it. If stuff like that is hard to find that could be a red flag to the place not being legit.

      Good Luck!
