Why is a degree from a online regionally accredited university viewed negatively?

We Answered:

It isn't regarded negatively solely on the basis that it's online. Some schools have a better reputation than others. Doesn't matter whether it's online or classroom. UPhoenix, for example, has both online and classroom programs. Their classroom degrees aren't regarded any differently than are their online degrees - it's all about the college, not the learning modality.

Some schools have a pretty poor reputation (whether online or classroom) and degrees from those schools aren't regarded as highly as those from better reputed schools.

It is not "just as good as...." unless you're comparing a degree from the same college. Because, colleges are ranked in our society.

There are some cases where an online degree is "better than" a classroom degree. If you get a degree online from one of the top 25 colleges in the US, that's not "just as good as" one from one of the "as seen on TV" colleges. And guess what, some of those top 25 teach online.

Remember though - being regionally accredited simply means that the college has met the minimum requirements to be "a college" -- not that it's "the best" college or even a very good one. Only that it's "an accredited college". There's a reason that we rank the 3000+ colleges in the US. It's because they aren't all "just as good as" each other.

Does the State of Texas accept an Online degree that is Regionally and National Accredited?

We Answered:

They do IF the university degree is leading to licensure. IF its just a history degree without the licensure track, you cant simply go take the praxis and then get a license. You are still missing your student teaching and also the coursework in education theory and practice etc. Thus, you need to pursue a masters. Odds are, this is the case- its a BA in History, which isnt sufficient to teach as a full time teacher. It is sufficient, however to enter into a Masters program and/or an alternative licensure program.

If its a degree in secondary education or history WITH licensure recommendation, then yes- it will be accepted. Youll need to send the part of your license application to the dean of the education program so they can sign off on it as being a licensure track program.
