    Hello, everyone.

    I trully wish to acquire an associates degree first then bachelors degree second. I am so glad that I found this site, I started to apply to the UoP but after reading certain replies, I am not going to. Does anyone know of a fully regionally accredited degree program that is not expensive. I do not want to sound cheap but I am financing my IT education myself. My current occupation is Oracle DBA with over 10 years of solid IT experience. A degree will be nice to have as a backup. Honestly, I was going to enroll ACCIS who is DETC accreditted, after viewing the replies posted here, I have second thoughts. Even when I enrolled into a program, I plan to use the degree for advancement, I do not want to experience any negative feedback on the validity of the degree. Thanks in advance for your comments/answers.

    I myself have recently enrolled in the online Computer Information Systems program at Baker College. It has been a B&M school since the early 1900's and has RA. The tuition is reasonable and is the same for everyone, regardless of residency. You can find their website at www.baker.edu. Good luck in your search.

    If you have an ORACLE certification you might be elegible for credit transfer for the bachelor's of IT at Jones International University, that you way you might be able to save some money and time.

    You checked to see if your employer refunds tuition
    for courses you take, right?

    At first glance, Baker does appear to be quite inexpensive. However, I believe that the cost is per quarter hour. That means that you have to pay much more because you need to take more "credits." Please correct me if I am wrong.....

    Fort Hays State University (www.fhsu.edu) offers a degree in Information Networking and Telecommunications at a very reasonable price. But, perhaps its not the most applicable curriculum for an Oracle Admin.

    Cheers

    One small issue is the Fort Hays Degree is in General Studies with a concentration in Information Networking and Telecommunications. A small point but important none the less.
