Congratulations on thinking about furthering your education, you won’t regret it.
The state universities and community colleges will be the best and least expensive way to further your education online. Usually degrees obtained online from state universities and colleges will be no different than a degree granted to a student sitting in class.
Stay away from the for-profits because of high cost. Some will be reasonable, but most, like University of Phoenix, overcharge.
If you are just starting your college education or have less than 60 semester credit hours, try your local community college first. They may have an online AA degree program. If they don’t, try other community colleges in your state.
Once you have an AA degree, you can enroll in an online bachelor’s degree completion program at one of the state universities. Many state universities now have online degrees. The following are some websites to get you started.http://www.fhsu.edu/virtualcollege/http://www.peru.edu/offuttafb/degreeprog…http://outreach.uwyo.edu/ocp/http://www.distance.msstate.edu/http://www.distancelearning.ufl.edu/degr…http://www.apu.apus.edu/index.htmhttp://www.online.uillinois.edu/http://www.depts.ttu.edu/ode/CollegeOver…
Finally, when you choose a school, make sure it is at least regionally accredited. You can check accreditation at http://ope.ed.gov/accreditation/Search.a…
Good luck
