   I’m with the first answer. I don’t think I’d trust an online school for this - they tend to cost a lot more and carry less weight than a certificate or degree from a junior college. Call your local junior college - find out if they offer this. That’s SO much cheaper.

   Best of luck!

   Massage is either a certificate program at a trade school, or an associates degree at some junior colleges. To my knowledge there is no bachelors in the US.

   Since massage is a hands-on profession, online programs that don’t include an on-site practical portion are not acceptable for certification. Most of them are scams! Check with your state’s requirements and make sure the school has been approved before you enroll.

   Check to see if your state, (or the one you want to work in) even requires certification….about half don’t. A BS degree? Nah. Like the other answerer said, SCAM. I have done massage in KY and FL for 20 years with NO certification…My sister just spent two grand at a trade school, and said I taught her more than they did. (To tell the truth, though, she taught me a lot I didn’t know too) Bottom line, a degree won’t make you any more money than a license ir certification will. Don’t waste your $$$$$$$$$
