Jason--Have you checked with the non-profit schools in Portland? Several offer an MAT in evening formats. Be SURE to compare costs, and then go talk to a school principal or two. Ask them how they would look at a new teacher from U Phoenix versus, say, George Fox, or PSU.

There are some great alternatives out there; don't make a choice without knowing all the implications!

PS: If you have some credits from a for-profit, take your transcript to some of the non-profit degree-completion programs in town. Some will count many or even all toward your bachelor degree.
