    Can I get a list of schools offering a Bachelors in Mathematics online? I know there have been several threads on this topic but most of them are pretty old. I find it rather frustrating that so many schools offer Graduates degrees online but no Bachelors. In fact I found a book at my local library from the early 2000's that covers schools offering online degrees and most of the schools that I checked out no longer offer the degrees they did then. You would think after 10 years and it being the 21st century most schools would offer Bachelors degrees online. Either way here are some of the schools I've found.

    U of Illinois - emailed them over a month ago and haven't heard anything back
    Northwestern University - offers a math program but only a general studies degree
    U of Arkansas - unaffordable tuition
    Ottawa University - not sure if this place is legit
    Chadron state - doesnt cover enough math, its more like an AA in math
    Tesc and several other online schools - I don't think employers will take these seriously.
    St Mary of the Woods - All female college, not sure how I would explain that one to a potential employer. I use to be a woman? LOL

    Are there any other brick and mortar schools that offer this degree?

    Ottawa University is a perfectly legit, regionally-accredited, non-profit, Baptist-affiliated school. They were founded in Ottawa, Kansas in 1865.

    They probably do face the issue of confusion with the University of Ottawa, a well-known Canadian university which was founded in Ottawa, Ontario in 1848.

    This would have been my recommendation. Note that the online math degree program is at the University of Illinois Springfield, not the main U of Illinois campus in Champaign-Urbana. Would try them again. You might also check to make sure that any return emails are not getting misdirected into a spam folder by your email provider.

    If anyone asked, you would simply tell them the truth -- which is that St. Mary-of-the-Woods is coed for graduate and distance students. Only the residential undergraduate program is "all female".

    Another possibility:

    Mercy College (NY): B.S. in Mathematics online

    Before someone posts Indiana University - East a fourth time, it's already been posted three times. Also, SNHU has been posted twice.

    NO! You posted a link to Indiana University. I posted a link to Indiana University - East. By the way! Did you hear that they have a BS in Mathematics online? So does SNHU.

    I posted a link to IU Online which lists online degrees from all of the IU branches. If you click on the link "Go Directly to the Website," it takes you directly to Indiana University - East's webpage. Also, if you look at the bottom of the webpage, it gives you the contact information for IU - East.

    Excelsior College offers a BS with a major in Mathematics. Very generous transfer policy and affordable.

    The problem with APUS and Excelsior is that the OP wants brick and mortar schools.
