Will graduate schools in the United States and abroad accept an online college degree

There are schools we discuss on here, which will take a lot of alt-credit, but which also offer many more graded credits, which are much more helpful to applying to top schools.

No, you cannot take courses on campus at TESU, EU, or WGU (except if you're a nursing student at EU or TESU, in which case you would be spending a lot of money and taking all of your nursing courses on campus or in a clinical setting).

Agree. People here attend COSC, TESU, and Excelsior to utilize alternative methods of earning credits. The lack of graded courses could hurt an applicant to a highly-selective program. WGU's problem is that it's pass/fail.
