Laura Said:

I want to get a bachelor degree in Marketing. What is the best college to use that will allow online?

We Answered:

I would regard online universities as the absolute last resort for someone seeking higher education.

The quality of education these programs offer is minimal - there is simply no substitute for the kind of dynamic interactions and discussions that commonly occur in face-to-face college courses. Also, the quality of educator is significantly less at online universities - the best faculty choose to teach at real colleges and universities. Both the pay and work environments are far superior to online universities. So, for great classes from great instructors, go to a real college or university.

Also, because of the minimal training they offer, employers and graduate institutions place little value in degrees earned from online programs. Many of these programs lack even basic accreditation for the degree programs they offer.

Bottom line - you will receive little if any personal or professional benefit from online universities relative to what you could have received from a real college or university.

Andrew Said:

A masters degree in marketing from an online university or a professional marketing certificate?

We Answered:

A masters degree is definitely more valuable. Certificates are good when a comparative degree is either unavailable or too expensive.

Consider costs, time and future opportunities to make a decision. Personally, I'd pick the degree.

Tracy Said:

I am a full time employee and mom! Looking into getting a degree online any suggestions?

We Answered:

I am currently going to University of Phoenix. All the classes are online, and having a 2 yr old myself it has worked out wonderfully for me. You can do your homework in the evenings or weekends, and still have family time. :)

Online Degree in Business Management and Marketing?

We Answered:

hi. online degrees do not get the recognition that the conventional universities get. many top employers look at it as an express line education and it may not be too helpful if you want to move up the chain of a reputable company. definitely stay away from univ of phoenix and other schools who openly advertise. remember, there is a reason they have to advertise, know what i mean? find a conventional university that has programs to match ur situation. u will most likely have to resort to part time or even quit ur job and receive financial aid to support urself and ur children. hope this helps and best of luck to you.
