    I assume you're talking about a distance learning/online degree. If I was going to earn a BA at a US college by actually taking courses (not testing out) I think that Fort Hays State would be at the top of my list based on 1) cost 2) choice of majors. That's what I'm thinking about.

    Obviously the best choice is Charter Oak State College, because if it was right for me, it is right for everyone, so that's where everyone should go to.

    Without question, Curry College.

    Any school whose nickname is "Curry in a Hurry" has to have a lot going for it.

    Harvard doesn't have B.A. degrees, just A.B. degrees.

    Because there's a huge difference.....:rolleyes:

    The old Arts of Bachelors degree for the Kennedy and Bush boys. Should be updated to be more inclusive.

    Artium Baccalaureus to be precise.

    My sister-in-law is double-Harvard (A.B. & M.B.A.) and I used to get her going when I'd say "Wow, you have an Associate of Business degree? I didn't know that Harvard had an Associate's degree program!"

    Too bad it wasn't Yale as there's a good Dorothy Parker quote for that.

    I think there's an antibiotic for that.

    My undergraduate institution does this with a lot of their undergraduate programs. As a result, I got a few mildly confused phone calls from admissions offices when I was applying to graduate programs!

    Steve,
    What do you consider when you state "Best"?
    Is it Best student service, best student satisfaction, or best recognition, best name recognition or best professors?
    Best tuition or best sports team? :).
    Best in US or internationally? for some best is when you get to live in another country for a while?
    The "Best" is wide term with multiple meanings.
    For some even the easiest dumb-down college is the best one.
