About the program

You’ll need an internet connection to access course materials and the online student center. Each professor determines the need for a textbook and internet readings. You will be responsible for purchasing the required text(s) for each course.

The online courses work very much like a classroom and you will be required to interact with the professor and the other students in your virtual classroom, as well as adhere to assignment due dates. There is an online student center where you can post messages, questions, and have chats with classmates. You will also find the schedule, course plans, links, library resources, and much more.
