Going to a public state college online for your degree offers numerous benefits. Online state colleges and universities provide high-quality distance learning degrees at low rates. Plus, state colleges have brand names that enjoy a high level of familiarity and trust with local employers.
Online degree programs from state colleges are subject to the same accreditation standards that apply to residential degrees. State universities receive government funding. This helps them offer degrees at a lower cost than their private university peers.
Offering online degrees helps state universities educate the public while minimizing the high costs often associated with building new brick-and-mortar campuses. Online courses cost less to run than traditional courses, both in terms of a physical classroom space and tenured faculty costs.
