My $0.02 in the USA if you apply at a company with more than=20 50 people these days you will NOT get through HR without a=20 degree. Second it makes a world of diffence who "Accredidates" the=20 school. Just because you can get a loan for tuition doesn't=20 mean it's a good school. Most colleges and Uninversities=20 are accredited by the same regional bodies, which I=20 guarantee you are not the same ones that ITT and Devry got=20 accredidation from, that's why the credits won't transfer. As for online programs I would only take one from a real=20 brick and mortor school. Devry has some good online programs=20 as well as Temple. I live by Philly can you tell ? The=20 degree you get from them will say the schools name just like=20 you attended in person. It does not have "online" on the=20 diploma. The reason you don't see Engineering and Science degrees=20 online is because of the lab work associated with those=20 classes. The labs have to be completed in the lab ! --=20 Kevin --=20 http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist .
