Question about a college..

Hello,

Straight to the point. I hear of lots of people taking classes online, recently I just got a certification in geronotology(study of elderly). I did complete that, but it's mostly just "stupid". I am thinking of maybe taking some classes online, or getting a degree online, in something totally unrelated to my nursing classes. I have heard of Phoenix University online, it seems to be the biggest, and most known. Is it legit? I mean do most colleges accept their classes/credit hours? Has anyone actually got a bachelors degree from them? Does the degree it's self specially specify it was achieved ONLINE. Basically, this is an example. If I got a bachelors degree online from Phoenix Online in Nursing, would it be accepted at hospitals just like one from say Ohio State University where I attended classes on campus. Are the degrees from them as good as the ones earned from someone taking the same classes, getting the same degree from a college doing it on campus?
