[humanser] Online degree questions

[Jan Bailey]

I would think it would be difficult to totally get a degree in counseling or 
related fields on-line, because you have to do a lot of interactive things 
that might be difficult to do on-line. Also, some employers don't look as 
favorably on a totally on-line degree, so you need to check these things 
out. You might look for a school near by that would do mostly on-line. I got 
my Master's Degree in rehab counseling from Utah State in Logan Utah, but 
did have to go to the campus for 3 weeks. Otherwise, I did everything else 
on-line, but my degree did not say that, because I had gone to the campus 
for 3 weeks.
