When the unemployment rate reached 10% in the final quarter of 2009, the rate for people with a bachelor’s degree or higher was only 5% – just half the national average.
Both traditional and online university degrees should come from an accredited educational institution. The exceptional reputation of U.S. News & World Report means that you can trust in the quality and value of the programs offered here; the vast majority of educational institutions presented at U.S. News University Directory are accredited by one of the six regional United States accrediting agencies. The only schools that are not so accredited are those for which regional accreditation is not typically expected, such as most vocational and technical schools. Instead, these institutions are usually accredited by a national, field-specific accrediting body.
