Where can I find a well respected, online college to obtain a degree in business?
I love my job and the company I am with. I am currently a truck driver so my schedule is a little frantic. I see everyone advancing just because they have that piece of paper but have no idea in what they are doing. I want to advance but cant conform to a schedule that most brick and mortar colleges want you to adhere to when taking their online courses. I want to move up but want to find an online college that my job will recognize the degree that I obtain.

There are some really good options out there for you. Most programs online are flexible times such that you don’t have to be in class at a certain time but you will have assignments due weekly.
You’ll want a school that is regionally accredited. Additional accreditation by AACSB is helpful if you later want to go to grad school. I suspect that a full-time OTR driver could complete 2 courses (6 hours) per semester. Finding a college that does half-semesters (spring I and spring II) would speed your progress.

Some of those are exceptional colleges. Don’t let the prices scare you – you’re going to spread that out over more than a few years and you’re going to look for financial aid to help pay some of it.
Starting with a community college online could save you a bunch of money. Some community colleges are known to be very affordable compared to their 4-year counterparts.
Look at:
* Clovis Community College
* Darton College
* Barton County Communty College
* Central Texas College
* Rio Salado College
You have way more options than those "as seen on TV" colleges – explore all of the options before you decide.
