I work full time and the nearest college to me is an hour away. I know some companies may feel that online degrees are not as good, but I don’t feel I have a choice. However, I do want to go to a college that is regionally recognized and accredited, one that will transfer over to any other college later on when I go back for my masters. Any suggestions? Thanks
It is difficult to say what online college is the best just as it is difficult to say what campus based college is the best. There are simply too many factors that need to be considered. What is more inportant is finding the best college for you.
My recommendation would be to contact a number of colleges that offer the degree program you are looking for to weigh the pro’s and con’s (tuition, schedule, career opportunities, etc.) so you have all the info before you decide anything.
This site has some good information on regionally accredited online degree programs and colleges that offer them:

In my experience online degrees have grown considerably both in the eyes of potential employers and schools offering the programs. In fact many schools do not indicate whether a degree is obtained online or on campus. I do think you are on the right track in making sure that the college is regionally accredited. Additionally I would make sure that you look around at multiple schools (as you would if you were going to a campus) and see what program is best for you. I would also make sure you ask about transferring credits or degrees for later pursuits.
I did a search for accredited accounting degrees online and this site http://accounting-online-degree.info/ seems to have good info and some schools for you to check out.
Good luck!
