Life Experience Degrees Online

Hector Said:

who has the best online life experience degrees?

We Answered:

They are all equally useless. There is no accredited university that offers these degrees, and claiming one on your resume as a real degree is tantamount to fraud. I wouldn't bother if I were you.

Tracy Said:

Is online life experience degree worth considering? Are they recognised by US employers?

We Answered:

Good online schools will not offer credit for life experience unless you have taken a standardized test, like the CLEP (College-Level Examination Program) test, that shows you have gained college-level knowledge from work or military experience. Even then, you can't earn an entire degree from credit gained this way.

If you want an online degree, expect to pay per credit hour, expect to do hard work, and expect that it will take a few years. It's more convenient to go to college online, but it's not easy.

Most important, make sure the school you want is regionally accredited. This means its programs have been checked out by a third party and are legitimate. Employers will want to know your school is accredited. Otherwise they won't consider it.

Ted Said:

Is it worth it to buy the "life experience" degrees online? What's the catch?

We Answered:

Most are not accredited the way a regular college is. Most employers will not honor them. Don't waste your money!

Nellie Said:

Are life experience degrees, bought online, legal; even if not included on your resume?

We Answered:

Legal, yes. Useful for anything, no.
