I live in Washington State, and have 2 young children and a hubby. Moving to a top University wouldn't be practical. With my gpa I could get into any University I wanted. Are there any online programs offered at these top Universities? I'm really hoping for Psychology.
I have my AA transfer degree

You can earn your Psychology degree online but be careful to choose only an accredited online college.

The top tier colleges and universities do not have online degrees. Harvard has a continuing education program (Harvard Extension School), but you can't receive a BA entirely online. You can apply some classes towards the BA but would need actual classroom time somewhere to complete it. The extension school has open enrollment; you don't have to apply to take courses.

(Also, keep in mind that GPA is only one of many factors that affect admissions to elite colleges. Top schools like Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, and Yale reject more students with 4.0s in honors classes than they accept every year!)

This looks like another spambot, but I've left the posts since you've taken the time to give some good information.
