Schools Can You Get Into Grad School with an Online Math Degree from UIllinois?

AI Thread Summary
An online math degree can be a valid pathway to graduate school if it is from an accredited institution. It's crucial to obtain strong letters of recommendation from professors, as these are often required for admission. Prospective students are encouraged to directly contact the graduate schools they are interested in to confirm whether they accept online degrees. The University of Illinois offers an accredited online program, which is viewed positively in the discussion, with participants noting that it maintains the same standards as its offline counterpart. Concerns about e-learning were mentioned, but the focus remained on the legitimacy and acceptance of online degrees in graduate admissions.

anyone have any feedback?

thanks
 
If it's accredited, maybe. Of course, you'll also need to get three good letters of recommendation from three actual professors.
 
Why not email the grad school you wish to apply to, and ask them if they accept your qualification. They'll be able to give an actual answer to your question, rather than people on here guessing!
 
Is there a "university of illinois offline"?

If that's the same as the online one, then I see no problem -- it's obviously a professional online degree.

Though I hate this e-learning thing but that's for another thread...
 
:smile: I didn't realize that you were looking to do UIS's online program. I should hope that the University of Illinois is accredited, given that I'm about to graduate with a degree in EE from UIUC.

Yea, I can't imagine it wouldn't be the same, given that the domain is the same!

Agreed.. but I'll keep my mouth shut too!
