Taking online psychology courses for degree?


Question:
I am considering going to school for my bachelor's degree to become a therapist. I should preface this by saying that I do not have a college degree but have attended other post-secondary schooling (1 psychology class, word processing certificate and massage therapy school).

My question is, as a person who has never attended college, would it be more advantageous to be if I attended a brick and mortar school rather than took online courses for a psychology degree? I do realize that I would need to at least have a masters degree to do anything with a psychology degree. I also realize that there are certain classes that you could 'get away' with taking as online courses. Do you think online psych classes (at least beginning classes) are fine or do you think that would look bad to a potential employer or grad school?

Does anyone have any advice? I am asking for complete honesty with the responses.

Thanks

Answer:
I don't know that it matters. However, most univ. will not take classes you have finished online..they are different accreditations. You also do not get aide for most online schools. The decision is yours but i would check and be sure your univ. will accept them
