That's a good idea. What is the market value of the online degree? Is it comparable to full time degree?

There's no indication on the degree that it's online, so the same as the on-campus degree. The only differentiation that an outsider could possibly audit is that the online degree only allows for a coursework degree, whereas the on-campus degree allows for a thesis-based coursework (or you could do a coursework degree on-campus too).
