False.
They do.
Check the listing of schools they accept degrees from. Ashford university, Phoenix university and dozens of others are on the list. Not to mention I got my degree through The University of Arizona. 100% through their distance education program. Cost me 8000 USD for 8 semesters. The diploma and transcripts say nothing about it being a distance earned degree.
Part two of this is that with a JFRV or APRC you can apply to schools without them having to apply for an ARC for you. That means they don’t care where the degree came from. I know dozens who are working at solid jobs this way. Heck, I know decent private schools that hire teachers who have a JFRV or APRC and just a highschool diploma.
12 years ago Taiwan frowned upon distance education. Now, it’s fine.
