Online Bachelors degree
Hi All
I was wondering about your thoughts about online bacherlor degree programs. I have been trying to finish my bachelors degree but, recently I was informed of a few more courses that I would need to get done extending the length of the program I am in and limting my job options. I have considered PHX online. Will I be looked down upon by majors airlines by having a degree from an online program versus what I am in now (Adult accelerated Bachelor program)? It is still a 4yr degree in Business Adminstration and PHX is very much an accredited school. It is becoming increasingly popular. Any input I would appreciate it. Thanks, Chris |
The only ones i've seen cost as much as going to a regular state school. And state schools are more credible. Most people don't look on them as favorably. Plus there is a lot to college besides studying. You learn more social skills, how to sell yourself (like for an interview), meet tons of people with your own interest.

That may be an important detail to a prospective airline. |
Remember you'll never be appling for a job alone. So you need to try and get an edge on that faceless monkey trying to steal your future.

Thanks for all the replies. One other question is - I have a Bachelor Degree from overseas is there even a remote chance the Majors would accept that as having done a degree?

https://www.wes.org/ Airlines, universities and employers may want your degree evaluated for "US equivalency" and you need to check with them to see which pathway/evaluator is accepted! Additionally, If I held a foreign bachelors degree I would attempt getting accepted into an online US Masters degree program first before attempting another bachelors degree. Accreditation or Equivalency evaluation is very important! https://ope.ed.gov/dapip/#/home |
