Is it worth it studying an online univ. a bachelor's in Web Design/Development?

My only choise of learning Web Design/Development is by studying an online univ. I maybe won't be able to study in the US states since I don't live there and is probably more expensive.





Is it a good experience studying an online univ. and not inside the class seeing your classmates/professors? I sometimes feel that maybe I won't learn well because is not the same.





I'm thinking of studying in University of Phoenix.


Is this a good online univ?


Has anyone studied there in Web Design/Development?


How much did you pay?


Did you learn well when they taught you well as if you were inside a class?


Did you have a good experience?


Did you get a job?


Are there other good online univ that teaches this?





What are good Univ/College that teaches bachelor's in Web Design/Development that are NOT online but in real class?





I'm sorry for asking so much questions but I really need to know this before I make my desicion.





Please serious answers.





Thank you for reading my questions.

I received my Master's Degree in Business Administration online at Baker College's Center of Graduate Studies and am currently working on my PhD at Walden University online. In the online environment, I found it helpful to establish a relationship with classmates who you can call and talk over things about class. Several of my classmates live outside of the United States, so that is not a problem. As for Web Design, check out www.bakercollegeonline.com for a bachelor's in web design.
Reply:Yukina,





In the US, the origin of your degree is sometimes as important as the degree itself. I would try to find reputable state universities that offer online web design classes. I would hate for you to spend oodles of money getting a Phoenix web design degree and then not getting job offers. Try to google non-web-based reputable universities that have web design as an online option and then inquire. I bet most of them will cost the same if not cheaper than Phoenix.
Reply:The Art Institute of Pittsburgh (Online Division) is an excellent choice for a Graphic Design (Associate or Bachelor) degree. I recommend that you start with the associate program first. That way if you later find out that this is not what you want to do, you haven't wasted too much time and money but at least you already secured yourself an associate degree diploma that you can always put in your resume.





Once you have your associate degree, you can start finding a job in this field, or if you want to continue studying, your associate degree should count towards a Bachelor's degree.





As far as online studying, it's all up to your personal drive and motivation if you want to get the most out of it. It takes a lot of discipline to be on your own studying online. The only bad thing about online studying is that you don't get the benefit of social interaction that you normally get in the traditional classroom setting.
