They eat the interchange rates and you get a check in the mail a few weeks later. I am in the process of narrowing down, which online university would be best. 'University' of Phoenix has a high admission fee, which I have no interest in paying.

This might take a few hours to complete all their paperwork, but a semesters worth of courses will really make a dent in a credit card.

Now if anyone has any ethical reservations, fine, but do not criticize me. These universities practically steal from taxpayers. They enroll students, who have no chance of ever holding a job that requires any advance skill. Then when the students default on their student loans, we taxpayers get to foot the bill. This is payback, while earning miles.
