Do universities and employers discriminate against people with an online degree?
#2
Many times, there is no way to know that you have an online degree. Nothing on the transcript or degree says "online." It may be obvious if you get a degree from a school far from where you live, but they would have to look at the school location, and your location, and figure out that you didn't live there when getting a degree, which many people don't do.

Also, if you got a lot of your courses from B&M schools, and transferred to an online school later to finish up - that's not terrible.

I'm getting my degree online, and am not worried at all about it.
