I have been researching online degree programs for more than 2 weeks. Thanks to Rip Off Report.com I have been alerted to PCDI, Ashworth College, University of Phoenix and American InterContinental University as being scams or, at the very least, unethical in their practices. I was in the process of enrolling with AIU when I found the rip off website. Fortunately, I had not completed the financial aid process. I had several red flags and the rip off report was the clincher. I now know that had I completed the financial aid, I would have been a lost cause! I have an associate degree (brick and mortar, not online) and work full time. I do not have the opportunity to attend a traditional campus college at this time. I am only trying to improve my quality of life and I am sickened by the number of “colleges” that are preying on hard-working people! Please, if anyone knows of a distance education that is worth the time and money and will actually be accepted by an employer, let me know.

Do you know anyone who has ever received one and did they actually find a job?

I want to work in any law enforcement agency, what’s the best route to take? I have to get my degree online because I’m overseas. People with experience in cybercrime units would be very much appreciated in answering my question.

Go to degreeboard.com and ask there. It is a forum that deals with just this type of question. If there is an Accredited Online program they will know.
