Online State Colleges and Universities Degree Programs
Distance Degrees - Compare  >  Online Schools - Compare Online Colleges

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. 

If you're interested in finding a low-cost online degree, view our Get Educated Cost Rankings. Many of the most affordable degrees online are offered by traditional state universities. Tuition rates are typically lowest for state residents, but some schools give online students a reduced rate, regardless of their home state.

To find a state college online in your major area, use the Get Educated online degree search tools.

First, select either a subject or a degree level.

Once you see the initial search results page, look to the left side of the page and select "Non-Profit" under the "School Characteristics" menu to see a list of all the state colleges and universities online in your area.

If you can’t find the online certificate or degree program you need in the Get Educated directory, check the handy list below for courses and degrees at online state colleges and universities nationwide.

Online Community Colleges List

Community colleges offer the best deals in online associate degrees if cost concerns you. Online community colleges, which are funded by your tax dollars, are dedicated to providing work training, continuing education and online certificates in hot careers such as health care, medical coding and records, legal assisting, and computer programming.

State residents typically pay the lowest tuition for online courses, though some states also allow non-residents to enroll in classes online at a reduced rate.

Cost can be as low as $75 per credit -- often two to three times cheaper than online associate degrees and certificates offered by private two-year college systems.

Is an Online Christian School Right for You?

Christian online schools are growing fast. In fact, two Christian universities — Liberty University and Grand Canyon University — are among the 10 largest universities in online-only enrollment.

But before you take a leap of faith online — or turn up your nose at the very idea of an online degree from a Christian or faith-based college — you need to understand that there are two very different kinds of online Christian universities. One — or neither — may be right for you.
