What is
an on-line Distance Learning institution and how does it
work?
An
online distance learning institution does not operate a campus like
traditional
educational institutions do. Due to the benefits of
online technology, applicants come
from across the United States
and around the world. Anyone with a high school
diploma and years of significant
experience, skills, knowledge, and/or expertise in a
given field
of study can apply. Applicants are accepted from across the United
States
and around the world. All students are evaluated on an
individual basis according to
predefined criteria established by
each institution.
Life Experience degrees are awarded to
individuals who have demonstrated core
competencies of skill and
knowledge in their prospective career field. Schools that
offer
Life Experience Degrees use a Prior Learning Assessment to assess your
prior
experience. Your prior experience can include: military
service, work experience, prior
college, certificates of
achievement, travel, professional development courses and
workshops, community and volunteer services, and much more. The
information the
school reviews needs to be verifiable. Many
schools will request more information if
they feel that the
information is not accurate or incomplete. Some of the more popular
non-traditional institutions include the following:
-
Almeda University
-
Ashwood University
-
Breyer State University
-
Suffield University
-
Redding University
-
Ellington University
-
Rochville University
-
Bronte University
-
Glendale University
-
Madison University
-
Columbus University
Non-traditional Colleges and
Universities have developed Degree Programs that can
provide you
a Legal Diploma from your life experience. To qualify, most all the
schools
require you to fill out an application form with prior
experience. Many of the schools
provide the review service for
free, but some will charge up to $100.00 per application.
If you
have met the minimum requirements for the degree that you are seeking; you
can expect to receive your Diploma in 5 to 20 business days. The
actual number of
days varies from school to school.
Now is the time to prepare for
your future!
