What is the best place to take online college courses? ?

Question

Has anyone had an experience with this? Eventually I will attend a four year degree school but for now, I just want to get some of my generals out of the way. I need online classes that are transferable to most other colleges. Thank you!!!

It sounds to me that you are most likely looking for an online associates degree program. Associate programs typically require half the credits of bachelors program and therefore usually take 2 years to finish. There are a number of accelerated programs that can be finished in a year or a year in a half but these are typically fairly intense.

It is difficult to say which school is the best as there are a number of factors that need to be taken into consideration. What is more important is finding the best school for you. As long as the school is regionally accredited you should find that most of your credits are transferable by any college you choose to attend down the road. In the transfer process there are always some credits that do not carry over whether the school is online or in person. (my friend transferred from Princeton to Penn State and a number of her credits didn't transfer because they didn't offer similar courses).

I would recommend contacting a number of regionally accredited schools offering associate programs to find the best one for your needs. I would also be sure to ask them about the length of the program and any reciprocity they have with other schools you might consider down the road. This site has some good information on accredited associate degree programs:

If you want to transfer, you would be best taking online classes from your local community college. They are putting more and more of their classes online, so you should be able to do most or all of your general ed classes.

It is probably a better idea to take online classes from a community college, than from a private online school like University of Phoenix. The reason why is that it will be easier for you to transfer. Most state colleges take transfer students from state community colleges first, then if there is any room after that they will consider transfers from other colleges. Also, many community colleges have transfer agreements with the state colleges, where the 4-year university has to accept a certain number of their transfer students every year. A lot of colleges may not even accept the transfer credits from University of Phoenix.

Answer 4

I'm going to the University of Phoenix online also. I haven't had any problems and I initially intended to transfer but its much easier with the time I have available and I'm learning a lot. I suggest checking it out.

I got my degree through the University of Phoenix.  There might be better, but I didn't have any problems at all.
