I guess the issue there is that the service could get the stigma of not counting towards a degree requirement. Employers see some random Lorenz university and think that it could possibly be a decent university vs the online school which they know all about.

Given these guys are already enacting a check box degree requirement they probably would be irrational about something like this.

I'm glad that the programming field is in general a lot better about this, recognizing that the degree isn't the be all and end all of an applicants ability to do a job.
