I was cruising through a few forums recently about the debate between national and regional accreditation for online schools. Online education can be tricky and the differences between accrediations are sometimes confusing. here is a tip: always go with a regionally accredited school. Why? Well:

a) R.A. schools are more widely recognized

b) Transferring credits is nearly seamless with regionally accredited coursework

c) Employers place a higher value on R.A. schools

If you are going to invest $20K or more on an education; your best bet is to make sure the school is regionally accredited.
