I am sorry if this upsets anyone.
The companies are Prudential, ING, MassMutual, AXA
I hope this helps explain where I am coming from.
I would suggest you pass along this information to the University of Phoenix. I'm sure they would be happy to contact these companies and provide them with information so they could make more educated decisions in the future. On an aside, I happen to know that Prudential employs several Excelsior grads.
Online is the future of education and most colleges have expanded to include the internet. For an example, both Harvard and Yale offer online courses. On another point. Clep, Dantes, and ECEs are accepted at some 5000 schools. Some schools restrict the number of credits, primarily for financial reasons.
