Question by profile anonymous: Is an online college degree percieved as less qualifying than a degree earned at an actual campus?
I am a senior in high-school and all colleges offering the courses I desire are out of state, which would not work for me. I am thinking about taking the courses online.
I would like to study gaming software development and/or character design and animation. I’m uncertain as to whether another field would cover or relate to this material of study, such as a course offered by a local community college, “computer software development.” Another school within my state offers a “computer engineering” course, but like I mentioned, I have no idea.

YES… Most online colleges are a joke. All the for profit ones (U of Phoenix for example) are only out to push student loans onto kids who cant afford them…

they are FOR PROFIT schools, not for your education…

But yes its looked down on in comparison to someone who took the time to go to school… Plus college is a great experience.

Online classes just require you to post so many times in a forum and call it a discussion… you hardly learn anything and the tests are a joke because you can easily cheat…

Go to a real school, you’ll thank yourself later
