Online MBA Programs - Are they worth it?

For context, I have three years of experience. Two in Acquisitions and one in Asset Management at a brand name, multi-billion AUM REPE Shop. However, I have a no-name school for undergrad and would like to attach myself to a better branded school.

I have considered exploring the standard two year MBA programs, but recently have started digging more into the online mba options, since I am not looking to career change and they would enable me to keep working.

So far I've considered Carnegie Mellon, USC, and UNC. Has anyone in real estate done one of these programs? Thoughts?
