I am 33 years old and looking to finish a degree I started 14 years ago. I originally went to a state school for criminal justice and after 84 credits decided I didn’t know what I wanted and withdrew. I realize the mistake that I had made many years ago and would like to get an accounting degree. The problem is I have too many obligations to go back to a brick and mortar school so I have enrolled at Colorado State University global campus for accounting and am suppose to start classes next month. I started to look at Penn State world campus and their acct degree and am second guessing my choice. I can save about $200 per credit going to CSU and CSU transferred 57 of my credits leaving me only 53 to complete. I do plan on staying in South Dakota when I’m done so I don’t think the difference in school will affect my opportunities. I also need to make sure my salary after is sufficient enough to make the additional student loan debt worth it.I worry that a degree from Penn State would open more doors and might be worth the extra money if I would move out of the area in the future compared to a CSU degree and work experience. Sorry for the long post but I’m starting to worry if employers will take an acct degree from CSU Global campus seriously in comparison to one from Penn State. Any help is greatly appreciated.
