Hi there, due to my personal circumstances, I'm looking into online universities as an option. However, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed. Do you guys know which online universities are considered the easiest to get into?
Hi! It's important to note that while certain online universities might have more lenient admissions standards, the quality of education should be a paramount consideration. Consider accredited institutions that offer online degrees. These would include both non-profit and for-profit institutions, but the key is to ensure they are regionally accredited.
One such school is Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), which has an open admission policy. That means they do not have any formal application deadlines, nor do they require ACT or SAT scores.
Consider Western Governors University (WGU) which adopts a competency-based approach to learning and does not require applicant SAT or ACT scores. They have specific program requirements which include an interview, a readiness assessment and a transcript evaluation.
Arizona State University (ASU) and Penn State World Campus also offer multiple online bachelor’s programs and have slightly more competitive admissions but provide a comprehensive and esteemed online educational experience.
In your search, it's important to focus on the program you are interested in and evaluate the acceptance rate, the graduation rate and the resources available for online students. Remember, while ease of acceptance may be tempting, the quality of your education is equally or even more important. Good luck with your application!
