So you do not have to study on off time, after a long duty day and be able to socialize with friends and co-workers? Lastly, I wish you luck but completing classes online has yet to do anything for you. It may or may not turn out to have been a good decision.
It's all good. My dad talked to the hiring board at the major he is at, (and the one I want to go to) and they said it didn't matter where the degree came from or if it was online, as long as I have one. I was planning on finishing my 4 yr at school but I had this opportunity that arose and I decided to take it. No one will ever know if the choices they made were the right ones until they retire. As far as right now, I think I am on a pretty good path and I hope it all works out. No need to study much, with the program I am doing I only have a few classes left to take; I think about 7 or so.
