Online Colleges Course Vs. Traditional Colleges

I have been asking myself for a long time now, does an online colleges education can be considered equal to traditional college degree? Which one is better?

I believe it varies a lot:  Depends on the company or employers decision if they are willing to hire qualified students with online degree. It also depends upon the school or online college university, if it’s an unknown college then ofcourse that would be questionable.

As for today, I did a little research about online colleges education and I saw that it’s gaining more respect compared to traditional degree especially in the US.
Here are some images that I acquired while doing some research. This might be helpful.








Both sides have several advantages.

For online colleges course,  this degree  it will help a lot of adults or busy people to pursue their education without sacrificing busy schedule and a lot of time because they provide flexible scheduling and, frequently, accelerated programs that allow students to do more studying in a shorter time frame.

For Traditional education, I think the main advantage of this one is having social interactions among other students, compared to online program that sometimes gets really boring. Face to face interaction is very important too when it comes to studying because there are those learners who desire more instant feedback and expression of opinions that occur during a face to face conversation with others.

but I guess traditional education may provide a bigger pay-out at the end

CONCLUSION:
online degrees while easier will make you a foreveralone.jpg in life.
college degrees, even if you fail a course teaches you how a community works, lets you talk to girls, get drunk, get laid, be experienced in drugs, be bullied and many more!!!

theres a few good points made across the board with those, yet i have to voice my opinion on the "cons" that are proposed, while yes the "validity" of online studies might be put to question due to cheating ,nothing beats showing your skills and worth in the work enviroment, of course they cant "hire" everyone to see who is better.. but.. thats how we run things around here, giving people a paid week to show their skills !

I'm really apprehensive about online college. I have the feeling nobody is going to accept it as a "real title" and that I'd get second priority behind real college graduates.

I find online classes to be great. It's not like you are thrown out to the wolves, but you have to be self motivated. They both should be looked at as the same, but in the end, it never will.
