    Ah, online universities.

    One thing is for sure you cannot trust a website. Many diploma mills have made up their own accrediting agencies. So, a school may appear to be accredited, but in reality, they are accredited by an agency they own.

    The only true way to make sure a school is accredited is to check:

    Search CHEA Database of Institutions and Programs

    However I would really consider going to "real" colleges and asking them about their online programs.
