An online degree is an academic degree (usually a college degree , university degree, high school diploma, but sometimes the term includes non-degree certificate programs) that can be earned primarily or entirely through the use of an Internet-connected computer, rather than attending college in a traditional campus setting. Improvements in technology, the increasing use of the Internet worldwide, and the need for people to have flexible school schedules while they are working have led to a proliferation of online colleges that award associate degrees, bachelor degrees, master degrees, and doctoral degrees.

Online education or courses and degrees are enables for individuals living with physical disabilities, busy full-time employees, soldiers, and those living abroad, and stay-at-home parents, among others to have access to accredited higher education.




The most compelling reasons for trying to get an online degree and courses are time and money. With an online course, you can enroll in a class, do assignments on the Internet, and even communicate with classmates in chatrooms or on bulletin boards.

All of these activities can be done from the comfort of your home or laptop: any time, any place.
