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

[Old Guy]

My advice - If someone is smart, young, and has money don't even think of these schools. These schools better suit underachievers, old people who missed the boat, or people with limited financial resources. You are aiming for a degree to tick a box. If you aspire to be an academic go to the best school you can afford and be prepared to work your butt off and above all write write write until you can write 20 pages without breaking a sweat. I have a cousin who teaches at a university. In his 30 year career he has written 60 or more scholarly papers. You don't learn how to do that banging out multiple-guess exams. That being said, you could be the 1 out of 10,000 who turns a bottom rung degree into an academic career.
