What is the best online college for video game design?
I am considering either The Art Institute Online or Westwood College Online. I really want to be able to get into the industry so that I can one day get a team together to make my own massive multiplayer RPG. I have some really great ideas that haven’t been thought of, and I just want to get my foot in the door. I figure getting a degree will get me a portfolio that I can take to a company and get hired on a game design team for whatever. Maybe that will get my foot in the door?
Has anyone here taken gotten a good job through one of these online game design courses? I really need online courses so that I can work while I go to school.

I know of a few people that have taken the Devry online course and are currently in the field working as gamers. I was thinking of doing it myself, but alas, Pong was already made. Good luck.
Interesting question. Actually, I have an MA in Education and blog about online schools so I know a bit about this. ITT Tech has great programs. Colorado Tech does to.
The absolute best suggestion I can give though is to check out a new, little-known of free service that matches students with the right online school for them.
Their unique because they do a very in depth personality and goals test then they direct you to the schools that fit all your needs. There are alot of smaller online schools that do Video Game design but they don’t have the big budgets to advertise that the larger online schools do so it’s hard to find info on them —don’t let that stop you.
The important thing I always tell people is to get info from the schools directly. Yahoo Answers is great but you have to get the course catalogs, read through them thoroughly then even talk to some of the career counselors and teachers if you can.
Good luck! I’ll look forward to buying one of the games you created sometime in the future….
