Yes, you can mention your online master's degree when applying to study abroad, as long as it is from an accredited and recognized institution.
Universities and visa officers generally accept online degrees if the awarding university is legitimate and the program is officially recognized. You should provide all official documents and transcripts as proof. Be ready to explain the mode of study if asked during your application or visa interview.
