Northeastern University

I earned my Bachelor's of Science degree at Northeastern University College of Professional Studies in Boston, Massachusetts. NEU was especially appealing for me because I wanted to take classes online, and it was one of the few at the time that was highly... Read More accredited. Now, online education is very common, but in 2008 there were not as many options to choose from. Northeasterns transcripts do not even indicate that classes were online, so as far as employers knew, your classes were on campus. The Bachelors degree program at NEU was very comprehensive as well. I was able to take all of my general education courses online, with highly qualified professors. The elective courses were also really diverse, and I had a lot to choose from.

Northeastern University's online Leadership program through the College of Professional Studies is the best online school I have been through. I received my bachelor's degree in the same online format from a Brick and Mortar and I wanted to do the same... Read More for my Masters degree as I am a working adult. I started Northeastern University online and was immediately informed that my degree would be viewed the same as if I was on campus. There is absolutely no difference between online and on campus for the degree programs through the College of Professional Studies. Since receiving my degree in April of 2014 from Northeastern University I have gone on Multiple interviews all offering over $20,000 more than I make now all in the public sector I could possibly double this if I was willing to go into the private sector. I am exited about the possible opportunities and feel this was the best decision I have ever made. I still have retained the information I have learned and will never forget it. All of the sleepless nights were well worth the pay off I am receiving now! Now keep in mind...I live in Boston and the job market it better here than in many cities and I also had access to the campus at any time! When looking for an online program, try a local university with an online program. I recommend this format depending on your location.
