Thomas Edison and California Coast University are both good. They both will give you credit for your pilot certificates and ratings, as well as work experience.

California Coast University. Ya gotta go it. Roughly $10k and all self-paced.

Sure wish I had inside knowledge about these online degrees and potential employers not giving a crap where you graduated from before I dropped almost 200k lol.

Not all employers. Delta won’t look at you with an online degree, it seems.

Their problem to be honest. Not gonna pay 6x times more for a degree and try to make it to class for a tiny chance if getting hired at delta. Lots of good jobs out there

That’s a snooty position they take if that’s true.

Having taken online courses at a great university and in person courses at the same one it’s night and day. I don’t know why an online only degree is considered at any of the majors. They’re a joke in comparison.

I think they can also tell between the "This is a tough, respected online program" versus "Give us $10k and we'll print you a bachelor's degree"

They're looking for a type of person. Are you someone who will take a shortcut just to check the box?

Be very wary of some of the above recommended schools. Look at accreditation, if they are a nationally accredited school that’s for profit it raises huge red flags. Nothing from a nationally accredited school will transfer it would be a horrible idea to have a degree from one of these schools as a back up plan. Find a school that’s regionally accredited and even better if it’s an online branch of a brick and mortar.
