Which online CS degree should I choose? Regis or UIS?

I've been accepted for Computer Science program for both Regis University, Denver CO and University of Illinois at Springfield.

By your opinions, which one would be better if I wish to pursue my masters studies in the same field?

If you are looking to continue on to graduate study, I recommend Regis. Their CS degree is more theory and mathematics-oriented than UIS's. Regis also recently got ABET accreditation for their Bachelor's in CS, which is pretty rare for an online degree.

Oregon State has a new post-bacc Bachelor's degree in computer science. it's worth a look. i'm currently taking CS courses at community college, and researching which online schools to attend. but, yeah, the ABET accreditation is great.

Ive been in the IT industry for a while. I think the best place to get your degree is wherever you will thrive. None of those names stand out to me as a premier school, so on a resume I would be looking more at your GPA and work experience (internships).

Thanks for choosing CS we need the help.
