Distance Education Programs

Distance Education Programs

Students who want to complete a bachelor's degree, remain in their home community, and have the flexibility of arranging class time around a busy schedule, should consider the online approach from colleges around the state of Kansas.

These programs are offered as alternatives to the conventional programs and majors. The course studies should fulfill traditional university requirements while meeting the student's specific goals for a college degree... without coming to any other campus.
