I'm getting my MBA online at Penn State. A lot schools offer degrees online these days. I got MBA ads from Rutgers, Syracuse, North Carolina, Miami, Villanova, Oregon State, Temple, UAB, Boston University, Northeastern, Washington State, etc.
Online degrees work for those people who are going back to school to finish their undergrad degree, have families, a disability, are often deployed in the military or just want to get a masters degree to further their career. I personally could've gone to SMU Cox or even the Texas MBA program that's offered here in Dallas but my full time job plus other activities keep me from attending classes in person. I don't have to worry about putting off vacations, running late, being stuck in traffic, running to class and deal with bad weather on the way in and out. Penn State offered a lower tuition and it's an MBA from a very prestigious academic school. No, I won't become a Big Ten apologist, that title belongs to Frank and MplsBison. J/k
One thing I always tell people who might be interested in getting their undergrad online is to make sure they're getting the best deal for their degree. A bachelor's degree from Oregon State or Colorado State goes a long way compared from one from Walden or Strayer. It is also way cheaper and you won't be stuck with a lot of debt from a worthless degree. Also, if you're fresh out of high school, online degrees are not for you, unless you have a disability or are active duty in the military. There's nothing like experiencing college life in your younger years and most of the time you develop relationships and networks that last a lifetime. I also noticed that most people who look down on online programs do so because Phoenix was the pioneer so it has that stigma attached.
As for Grand Canyon, I didn't know they were evangelical. I just thought they were just like Phoenix. I learned something new tonight.
