Online colleges are frequently considered by mid-career professionals, people looking for a career change, or prospective undergraduates looking to save time and money. The state of Illinois is home to a number of quality online colleges, and with a GDP of $775 million that ranks among the top 20 countries in the world, and playing host to numerous large corporations and key financial institutions, it also presents a promising tableau for those seeking a boost in their career.
"Does it matter where an online college is located? Well, for one, at a public school that offers online degrees, in-state students often save money on tuition," Christian Amondson, Managing Editor of College Choice, said of the ranking. "Secondly, even if you're studying remotely, one of the biggest benefits to college besides the education itself is developing networks of people you can work and collaborate with. So it's worth considering where your networks will be located."
