I've heard good things about University of Phoenix online, although I've yet to take any courses online. They do have an IT program, among others.
UOP sucks really really bad. I took one class, and the inner workings were very very shady.

First off, all classes are 3 weeks long, and you have to do it all over an IMAP mail server. On top of that, it costs $400 a credit hour!!

They swear up and down financial aid will go through, and start you up immediatly. Then you realize the government isn't stupid enough to give aid for a school that costs so freaking much. I saw a lot of students get caught in the financial aid first class dept. I'm just glad I paid for my first up front to make sure "financial aid" did go through.

In a nutshell, even if you had the money to pay for it, the classes really sucked. There really wasn't much teaching at all.
