Online Degree Completion Program

ONLINE INSTITUTE COURSES

Online institute credit courses are designed for those students who desire high quality coursework, but are unsure of their need for an accredited degree.  Such students may choose to take any online course for institute credit.  There are two distinct advantages to institute credit courses.  First, the tuition is 70% of the regular tuition, and the registration fee is significantly reduced.  Second, upon successful completion, these courses can be converted to college credit courses.  This is accomplished by paying the difference between regular tuition and fee, and meeting other degree requirements.
