I would definitely recommend going to an on-campus, traditional university. Online degrees and degrees from for-profit universities are simply not as valuable when you go on the job market. you pay an arm and a leg for an inferior education. It's simply not possible to teach yourself as well as a professor can teach you. Its not just about memorizing material; the point of an undergraduate education is to learn critical thinking, to challenge previously held belief systems, learn new schools of thought, etc. The studies that have come out about online education all demonstrate very poor results. Most employers are aware of this and will hire the candidates with a higher quality education. You can pay less to go to a traditional school, provided you have the grades to get in.
