1. Of your entire list, only UMUC has any credibility.
2. You will get a wide-range of opinions on this question, but at the end of the day, at a bare minimum, the college you select must be accredited by one of the 6 major regional accrediting agencies. While the previous poster is correct in saying that UMUC is a good school, there are several other schools on the list that are well-regarded (and not synonymous with online learning). One good example of this is Benedictine University, established in 1887, and deemed "selective" and worthy of ranking by the US News and World Report. Personally, I would advise against attending any college that is synonymous with online learning. Attend a well-established university that also has a campus program. State schools often have the best tuition rates and people don't immediately think of online learning when you say you earned your degree at the University of Illinois or UMass. I hope that helps!
