CIU recommends to study a degree online because:
1. Study a Degree Online For Financial Reasons
In the image below, Usnews.com shows the average tuition and fees for public in-state, public out-of-state, and private colleges across U.S.A for 2019-2020. As we can see, the average for a public in-state university being $10,116 per year. The majority of bachelor programs are 4 years long, therefore the full cost will be more than $40,000; however, this doesn’t account for relocation and living expenses, which will bring the total cost to surpass $80,000.
At CIU, the total program cost to study a four-year bachelor’s degree online is $60,705, and there are no relocation expenses due to being 100% online. Many of our students also study in-and-around their full-time job, therefore their living expenses do not increase or decrease from studying with us.
2. More Flexibility
University programs that take place on-campus require students to attend classes at various times during the day. These programs are generally designed for full-time students who don’t have many life commitments. Do you have a child, a full-time job, or other activities and commitments that don’t allow for flexibility? This would make it very difficult to near impossible to be able to juggle everything without being left behind in one aspect.
A great advantage of distance learning programs is that you can pursue your education goals by studying when you want and where you want. You can make your own schedule; for example, if you’re a night owl and plan on studying after your 9-5 job, you have long lunch breaks that you would like to take advantage of, or you are an early bird that plans on studying before your other daily commitments, you can make it fit into your lifestyle.
As long as you have access to a computer, laptop, or tablet, with a stable internet connection, you can study an associate, bachelor’s, master’s, or doctorate degree online. You can study from a learning environment that works best for your needs: your desk, your bedroom, the local library, or your favorite coffee shop.
You can now plan study time into your daily schedule, rather than planning your day around your studies.
Of course, there are still deadlines and assignments that need to be submitted on time.
