Psychology BA.
I did most of my degree the traditional way (started college at 18, directly after high school, lived in the dorms and all that good stuff). Originally I was going to finish that way as well, but then my family was going to move to California, and I was going to move with them, so I asked for permission to finish my degree through other schools/online (I only had 6 classes -- 18 credits) left at that point, and now I'm down to 5 classes...and then I decided that I wasn't going to move with my parents, and that since I had permission to finish online, I was going to work full time and go to school part time as my social life at school would pretty much be nonexistent this semester since most of my friends graduated in May, and the girl I was going to live with ended up living at home because she didn't have money to live on campus.
The first online class I took was anatomy&physiology II, and that was because it was the only A&P class I could find over the summer, and in order to start my nursing classes I had to take it since I had withdrawn in the fall from A&P I and retook it in the spring. That was the summer after my freshman year of college.
The other 3 online classes I have completed were all this year. I took the anthropology class to get my last required credits in the social sciences (just elective credits, they could be in any social science), the English class to make up for the class I dropped this past spring semester, and the religion class is part of the of the 18 credits I got approved to take elsewhere.
