In response to Penndemonium
One thing I have preached for a while is that the value of an undergraduate Ivy education is more about branding and relationships than the actual education that can be replicated in most cases in a state school. Graduate degrees are much more evaluated by the reputation of the granting institution.
If you can say on your resume that you have a Wharton degree, exactly how you got it (daytime, nighttime, onsite or remote) does not matter very much. OTOH, remote learning does not foster the kind of long term relationships that make up so much of the value of conventional learning.
Bottom line: some learning works remotely, but the pricing needs to reflect the diminished overall value.
