What matters is not whether it’s online or classroom but the reputation of the college awarding the degree. Those “as seen on TV” schools don’t have the same reputation as the traditionalists – even when teaching online. And, very often, the traditional colleges are much less expensive.

Everyone and his brother is teaching online these days – look around and you’ll find some really good colleges offering what you need.

At a minimum, the university *must* be appropriately accredited, which Devry is not. And it must be, at least, not actively *hated* by employers, like U of P is. If you must do this degree online, please do it via a reputable offline uni that offers online masters degrees. I'm not sure which unis offer online masters degrees in HRM, but solid unis that offer business related masters online include UMass Amherst, Northeastern, Boston University, U Maryland, Penn State, Southern New Hampshire University, U Florida, U Nebraska, U Denver, Ball State...quite a few out there. No need to go to U of P or Devry. It matters a lot. At a minimum, the university *must* be appropriately accredited, which Devry is not.

I don't much favour the unis you have listed. Look at if the University is credible outside of its distance education curriculum. I don’t much favour the unis you have listed.
