I actually started my degree on campus full time at Arizona State while I got my ratings.. When I got a full time job instructing, I just changed to one of the online degrees that they offer. Pricing was actually cheaper than in-state tuition. Psychology was my choice. They are getting more and more as time goes by. Political science is popular I know.

Pricing is fair wherever you live I think.. Univ of PHX is quite expensive from what I've heard.

Check it out.

This is the truth.

Is a degree in Psychology really that much better? I've heard of far too many people with a Psych. degree looking for jobs at McDonald's. If you're doing psychology as a career field, then you probably have a Ph.D hanging on the wall of your office. I don't think just a 4-year degree in it gets you much, but do correct me if I'm wrong.
