As an OMSCS alum, let me tell you an open HR secret: EVERYONE knows your degree is ONLINE. Do not assume HR is stupid.
In fact, it is just simple math and common sense. There are currently >13,000 OMSCS but only ~400 in-person graduate students. And how can you study in Atlanta while working in, let's say, New York, Seattle, Toronto, or Mumbai?
Above all what's wrong with an online degree?
Yeah, there’s nothing wrong with an online degree, and in 2024, most people don't really mind it anymore. I really think it is a myth at this point, at least here in the US, that schools put "online" on the diploma. To my knowledge, no university in the USA does this, not TESU, WGU, Excelsior, or even the University of Phoenix. I tried Googling and even asked ChatGPT while respond to OP eariler, but I couldn’t find any US university that put "online" on their diplomas.
I think the main point OP was trying to make isnn't about whether the degree is online or not. It's about whether the degree is the same as the one offered on campus, rather than being part of a separate adult or continuing education program.
