Be very careful before getting into any college program. jenniferruth made a good point about diploma mills, but you should also be careful to understand the school's accreditation; some degrees won't do much at all to help you get a job or get into graduate school. The best online schools are regular schools that also offer courses online.

Also, any solid online school will be just as tough and take just as much time as a face-to-face school. Taking courses online is more convenient for when you turn in assignments and do your research (I love virtual libraries!), but the work will be just as tough and on top of that, your participation in an online class will be harder than in face-to-face, because the professor will know exactly when and how well you discuss the topics and material; no hiding in the back when you're not ready!
