October 9, 2009, Newsletter Issue #186: The Worth of an Online Business Degree

Tip of the Week

Congratulations! You’ve found an awesome online post-secondary establishment that promises a bachelors degree in business. Perhaps the school sounds familiar, or you’ve seen them advertised on television. Before writing a check for tuition, do some research to be sure that what you’re paying for is accredited by the Department of Education. Remember, a school doesn’t necessarily have to be accredited to be legitimate. Sure you’ll get an education; unfortunately, if the name on your degree or diploma isn’t recognized, you might not get a job.

Perhaps you want to obtain a general business degree online. If you have the name of a college or university in mind, visit the Department of Education’s website and run a search on it. Also, compare tuition rates of other colleges and universities with similar programming options. A simple Internet search for College opportunities online will cast a wide net of suitable post-secondary education options.

Start your homework early by researching all of your online learning options. Unless you’re absolutely sure about the college you’re applying to, take some time to investigate. An online bachelor degree in business is great, but it’s worth nothing if it isn’t recognized in the real world.
