I have a question.

I am trying to go back to college, but i work full time. So, my only option is Online degree. I am wanting to get a computer science degree concentration in programing.

Does anyone know of a good fully accredited online university?

General programming not game programming degree. I have talked to allot of programers that work at game companies and they all just about said do not get a game programming degree get a CS degree in programming.

Thanks for the help

Another recommendation: avoid for-profit schools.
See the FAQs.

Both of these universities are non-profit and offer CS degrees completely online:

Regis University: http://cps.regis.edu...ter-science.php (regionally and ABET accredited)
University of Maryland University College:http://www.umuc.edu/...ograms/cmsc.cfm (regionally accredited)

Both schools are somewhat expensive (~$500 per credit hour), but financial aid is always available. I go to UMUC and its a decent program. There are courses offered in game development and computer graphics. Also, UMUC offers a lot of minors that can be earned completely online. I just finished the coursework for a minor in mathematics and only have four courses left in my major. If you want more information about UMUC specifically, let me know and I'll try to help you out.
