Barton County Community College online degrees review
Brief look at the university - Barton County Community College
Barton County Community College is a community college located in Kansas, USA. Barton County Community College has two campuses, one located on Fort Riley and one near the Great Bend, according to the Barton County Community College website. The internet online degree portal for Barton County Community College is known by the very interesting moniker BARTonline, and that is the online degree portal for the college. I was unable to find anything on the college on Wikipedia as at 2008, but there are two websites that publicise information on Barton County Community College - one is the main site and the other is BARTonline. It might be interesting to know that the college prides itself for - empowerment, learning, evaluation, discovery and growth. It might also be interesting to note the close relationship the college has with the US military and US military training, and troops.
Barton County Community College is accredited and there are no known controversies surrounding Barton County Community College as at 2008, and it seems to be a very well established college mainly for military personnel, people living in the Kansas area, and now with its main online portal, this college serves the worldwide demand for knowledge, degrees and useful certification.
Which courses are offered at Barton County Community College
Normally, this is easy to write, as a simple glance at the website will reveal to me what courses they offer and the like. However, this college is somewhat different - Barton County Community College does not make a distinction between the degrees and programmes offered from their main ground physical campuses and programmes offered on BARTonline. Hence, here is what the BARTonline site shows:
associate degrees - associate of science, associate of arts, associate of general studies, associate of military studies,
bachelor degrees - degrees in dietary management, hazardous material management, emergency management with emphasis in homeland security, and a certificate in medicine.
When one looks at the courses and programmes offered under each class/type/ particular kind of degree, there are many courses and programmes, such as psychology, English, literature, and of course military studies. The websites make no distinctions between local and international students; no distinction between programmes and modules; no distinction between online degrees and degrees from physical campuses. Nonetheless, Barton County Community College clearly offers mainly associate and basic degrees, and does not specialise in masters or PhDs for their online programme offerings. Clearly, for a basic degree or an associate degree, Barton County Community College might be a good college to check up on and research on.
Finance and other matters at Barton County Community College
Barton County Community College has a very important financial aid office, which offers loans, bursaries, scholarships and government grants to soldiers. There are, for instance, activity scholarships, departmental scholarships, trooper bill scholarships for military or DOD civilian ID cardholders, and much much more. All these aid and schemes are easily available to fund either your online education there or an education in a physical campus in the USA. Do remember to check up on the availability and requirements of the various scholarships and loans at Barton County Community College.
Why you should study there and my personal recommendations
Barton County Community College has a focus on the military and therefore might be a good choice if you are looking into a military career or a degree related to the army. Barton County Community College is also a community college mainly focused on US needs and hence if you come from the USA this might be a very good university to consider for your associate degree or bachelors. However, for students seeking masters and doctorates, this college does not seem to offer what you really need. My personal opinion is that Barton County Community College is a rather good college and for a military career one might consider it, but if not, for associate and bachelor degrees, Barton County Community College should be considered only in competition with other colleges and universities. More research is needed. Besides, without masters, doctorates and dedicated distance programmes for postgraduates, this college might be limited to several types of students - those who are from the US military and those who are looking for associate or bachelor degrees. Cheers and stay tuned for more evaluations and analyses on other schools and colleges here on my site! Thanks.

A. T. Still University Online Degrees review
Brief look at the university - A. T. Still University
A. T. Still University was established in 1892, and is a foremost leading university in the USA for health and health sciences/ health education. A. T. Still University is based in Missouri, and actually is a combination of four schools into one university. A. T. Still University offers both degrees from its physical ground campuses and also online degrees. A. T. Still University is accredited and its medical, health management and health education degrees are recognised and accepted widely and especially in the USA. A. T. Still University also offers dentistry degrees, but online degrees are usually limited to masters and post graduate degrees and hence a bachelors or basic degree for dentistry is not offered online.
A. T. Still University is established, good and well known, and has no known controversies. As a disclaimer, which should be understood quite well by many of my loyal readers and information seekers: All the information about this university and its online degrees are correct and accurate as at 2008, but more research and more information should be looked into if you are interested in A. T. Still University. This evaluation article is just a basic primer and does not substitute for your detailed knowledge and up to date information about A. T. Still University, which can only be obtained by writing to the university itself. You have to make the choice if it is A. T. Still University's medical or health education degrees that you want or another subject or another university's degrees, and the like. The decision is yours, and I hope I helped you in making an informed decision.
Which courses are offered at A. T. Still University
Being a dental college and medical school, A. T. Still University offers mainly degrees in the medicine and life sciences. All the degrees offered at A. T. Still University are accredited and recognised.

T. Still University is a good place to study for medical degrees for both dentistry and health management/ health education and the like. I would strongly recommend A. T.

On the right sidebar on my website, you may find more links for other universities which also offer medical degrees, and online degrees in the fields of education, health education, medical management and the like.
At the same time, A. T. Still University is also a good place to study because it designs its courses such that a professional can pursue his job and his medical, dentistry etc career while studying.

More online colleges and major universities offering online degrees
More online colleges and major universities offering online degrees
Initially, I wanted to write about UK online universities or degrees offered by UK universities, but then I realised that there was no major list of UK universities offering dedicated online degrees, unlike the USA. In addition, some of the UK universities did offer online degrees but only in some limited areas and mainly depended upon physical campuses and students studying with them to make money. In addition to that, in its turn, studying online also means that location and area of any particular university is not much of a problem, although it should be said that someone looking at a degree from an institution may indeed look at where the degree came from, whether or not it was a normal university degree read at a physical campus or an online degree read at an online university of from distance learning, for that matter. So I decided instead to write a summary of major online colleges and online universities apart from those that I already wrote on. How am I going to do that? Simple. Having looked at the top 50 universities and colleges, I simply remove those that I have already researched on and then narrow my topic to the really good universities that I should be evaluating and talking about.
According to my research, and also according to sources online (2008), here are more online universities and online colleges that offer good, accredited and recognised online degrees and online MBAs and masters programmes. On the right hand side bar of my site, you can see the other universities and institutions that I have researched on already as well as a summary of US online colleges and online education institutions in the USA.
Without further ado, here is the list of the other major online universities offering online degrees (most of the members on this list are actually established universities offering online programmes, rather than purely online universities dedicated only to offering online programmes - many of the universities have physical campuses and a physical presence in the places and countries of their origin):
A. T. Still University
Barton County Community College
Bellevue University
Bryant and Stratton Online
Canadian Virtual University
Champlain University
Crown College
ECPI College of Technology
Ellis College
Everglades University
Florida Metropolitan University
Jones International University
Keiser College
Kettering University
LeTourneau University
Medical College of Georgia
Pitt Community College
Rasmussen College
Regent University
Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science
San Joaquim Valley College
Simmons College
Simon Fraser University
St Petersburg College
Stetson University Virtual School
The Art Institute Online
Thomson Education Direct
Touro University International
University of Saint Mary
University of Southern Indiana
University of St Augustine
US Sports Academy
Utica College
Vincennes University
Westwood College
These are all the universities that have been taken from the top 50 list of best online universities, and I have removed the universities that I have already looked at in this site here.
I will therefore be covering and looking at these universities here on my site in the course of my university evaluations and university reports. Remember to ask yourself questions and compare and contrast between the various online universities and online colleges evaluated and reported on here. All these universities mentioned above, and more, to appear on Get Your University Degree Online. Happy reading and lots of luck with your online degree and online education! Cheers.

University of Massachusetts Online Degrees
University of Massachusetts Online Degrees Review
Brief look at the university - the University of Massachusetts
First and foremost, there are many things to cover for this article on online degrees and distance learning, and I am very certain that this article on the University of Massachusetts Online is going to be the longest in the entire Get Your University Degree Online site covering many universities and education programmes. Here goes:
The University of Massachusetts (UMass) refers to the five campus public university system and university network of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We will be referring and looking at the UMassOnline part and aspect of the University of Massachusetts, obviously, since the focus is on online degrees and distance learning here on this blog all about universities and online degrees.
The university system includes many Universities of Massachusetts: University of Massachusetts Amherst (the flagship physical campus and main university of the system and network), University of Massachusetts Boston, University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, University of Massachusetts Lowell, and the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Therefore it can be easily seen that the University of Massachusetts is not a single university or a single institution, but a conglomerate of universities and various institutions. Our focus for this article will be on the University of Massachusetts Online, the online portal for online degrees and certifications offered by the University of Massachusetts network. UMassOnline or the University of Massachusetts Online is considered exactly the same as any one of the physical campuses in the USA and hence "UMassOnline is UMass" is the welcome message from the University of Massachusetts.
Note that the University of Massachusetts is public and there are no known controversies surrounding the University of Massachusetts. In addition, there is a system called blended learning here that resembles distance learning, so the online learning systems and faculty for the University of Massachusetts must be really developed and good. Now I will talk about offers and courses here at the University of Massachusetts.
Which courses are offered at the University of Massachusetts
The University of Massachusetts Online offers associate degrees, bachelors degrees, masters degrees and postgraduate doctorate degrees. There are many courses available.
For associate degrees, an associate of science in IT is offered at University of Massachusetts Online, correct as at 2008.
For bachelors degrees, the course offerings and programme offerings here at University of Massachusetts Online are much more and more stable: bachelors of arts and bachelors of science, with the following degree subjects:
business studies, criminal justice, journalism studies, liberal arts, nursing, psychology, business administration, hospitality and tourism management, IT and much more.
For masters degrees, the course offerings here at the University of Massachusetts Online are:
special education, health management and policy, public health, management, business administration (MBA), criminal justice, school counseling, family therapy, mental health counseling, curriculum and instruction, educational administration, applied linguistics, and gerontology.
For doctorate degrees, the University of Massachusetts Online offers only nursing, correct as at 2008.
Nonetheless it can be said that the University of Massachusetts Online offers mainly educational and nursing courses, among others. There are many many good offers and many good courses and programmes here at the University of Massachusetts, but I would say that the concentration and expertise seems to be in education and nursing, among others. This is not to say that the others are not good, because the other courses here at the University of Massachusetts are good as well. I would personally seriously consider all the courses and the diversity of the available choices here at the University of Massachusetts.
Finance and other matters at the University of Massachusetts
Tuition and fees vary, but according to the University of Massachusetts, undergrad courses cost about $425 - $1200, and graduate level courses cost around $1390 - $2010. I would say that the tuition fees here at the University of Massachusetts are rather reasonable and comparable to other online universities and degree programmes on offer. The University of Massachusetts itself claims that it offers the best prices and best value for money (according to its many university pages).
Many financial aid schemes are available, the usual being loans, scholarships and financial aid from the US government, as well as grants for GIs in the US military under a bill from the government. The usual grants and loans apply here as they do in other online universities.
Why you should study there and my personal recommendations
There are many good reasons to study here, according to both their website and my own personal opinions. The University of Massachusetts is a good institution to study at overall.
The University of Massachusetts is accredited, very stable and prestigious. The campus degrees and the online degrees are equally considered and they are both indistinguishable. There are many good courses offered here at the University of Massachusetts and they are relevant and useful courses for you. The tuition is afforable and rather comparable, and in addition the usual loans and aid are all there for you.
I would say that this university may be a very good choice, and after you have looked around and done your research, this may still be a proven and rather good choice for you, because of its range of courses, its proven track record, its good and cheap fees with the financial aid as well, and also because it is good for nursing and educational concentrations, among many other subjects. I would strongly recommend it on the basis of the research that I have done, although I will add the usual caution that you need to do more research before making a choice for your online degree and distance learning education.
One again, my own personal opinion on the University of Massachusetts:
The University of Massachusetts is without doubt one of the more reliable, affordable and good universities for various and diverse courses that I have seen so far. While lacking in associate degrees and doctorate choices, for bachelors and masters degrees online, the University of Massachusetts is excellent and offers one of the best choices and prices in the market for online education and distance learning.
Thanks for reading about the University of Massachusetts and its online degree offers and distance learning schemes. I strongly recommend the University of Massachusetts. Cheers!

The tuition is afforable and rather comparable, and in addition the usual loans and aid are all there for you.
I would say that this university may be a very good choice, and after you have looked around and done your research, this may still be a proven and rather good choice for you, because of its range of courses, its proven track record, its good and cheap fees with the financial aid as well, and also because it is good for nursing and educational concentrations, among many other subjects. I would strongly recommend it on the basis of the research that I have done, although I will add the usual caution that you need to do more research before making a choice for your online degree and distance learning education.
One again, my own personal opinion on the University of Massachusetts:
The University of Massachusetts is without doubt one of the more reliable, affordable and good universities for various and diverse courses that I have seen so far. While lacking in associate degrees and doctorate choices, for bachelors and masters degrees online, the University of Massachusetts is excellent and offers one of the best choices and prices in the market for online education and distance learning.
Thanks for reading about the University of Massachusetts and its online degree offers and distance learning schemes. I strongly recommend the University of Massachusetts. Cheers!

Thomas Edison State College - online degrees review
Brief look at the university - Thomas Edison State College
Thomas Edison State College is a college located in New Jersey, and of course named after the famous Thomas Edison. Thomas Edison State College offers 12 undergraduate degrees and 4 masters degrees. It offers both physical campus degrees and online degrees, although that is very hard to establish from their website. It was established in 1972 and is a public university. Thomas Edison State College is very powerful in the academic arena, since The John S Watson Institute for Public Policy is located at the Thomas Edison State College, and the New Jersey State Library is an affiliate of the College. Thomas Edison State College has no known controversies.
The key things about Thomas Edison State College are: it is accredited, it is not for profit and it is public, high quality and specialises in associate degrees, baccalaureate and masters degrees and a pioneer in adult education and the use of educational modern technology. Thomas Edison State College is mainly about adult learners and betterment and is really devoted to this good and lofty goal. More to come about Thomas Edison State College in the rest of this review.

Taking Wikipedia as a source for the main degrees offered and at what level: associate degrees in Applied Science, Arts, Business Administration, Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Public and Social Services. For baccalaureate, arts, applied science and technology, business administration, health sciences, human services, and nursing. For masters and postgraduate degrees: masters of arts in liberal studies, human resource management, nursing and educational leadership.

Thomas Edison State College offers all these aid on their website for online degrees. I must honestly say that the tuition here at Thomas Edison State College is very affordable and can be said to be a very good investment for your online degree.
In addition, the traditional loans, aid programmes and more should also apply with equal force and justification for Thomas Edison State College, as all other online universities as well. More research should be done into this, if you do require financial aid, and Thomas Edison State College will be more than willing to help.
Why you should study there and my personal recommendations
The tuition at Thomas Edison State College is relatively cheap and affordable and good. The nursing courses and programmes at all levels are excellent and very well reviewed around the world and especially in the USA. Standards are high and the quality is good. Thomas Edison State College is an investment in yourself and not in the college, because it is good for education and value for money. All in all, this is a good university and I strongly recommend it for masters programmes due to the academic rigour and quality; and nursing because it is accredited, excellent, and a better way to pursue an outstanding nursing education. Thomas Edison State College is a great college overall, although more research should be done before commencing on any good investments as well. Cheers!

Azusa Pacific University has many campuses and physical off site regional schools or centres, and Inland Empire regional center, Murrieta regional center, San Diego regional center, High Desert regional center, Los Angeles regional center, Orange Country regional center, and Ventura regional center.

Azusa Pacific University Online is the body and website that offers online degrees, bachelors and masters in particular.
Which courses are offered at Azusa Pacific University
The choices for online degrees are rather limited, but very focused and specialised, with regards online programmes and education at Azusa Pacific University. There are only bachelors degrees and masters degrees offered, and the online degree subjects are:
leadership, nursing, education technology, and school librarianship.
These are the only subjects and programmes offered at Azusa Pacific University for online degrees. There are not many choices for online education here, but on the bright side these are specialised and focused degrees that are catered to niche groups of students and professionals like you seeking better professional education. In particular, the nursing, education and school librarianship programmes are the best online degrees to choose if you intend to pick Azusa Pacific University. This is because Azusa specialised and focuses only on these strong niches that it offers, and might therefore be of more use to your professional education than other online degrees.

At Azusa Pacific University there are the usual student aid, loans and grants to assist your education should you need any financial assistance in getting a university degree.

Azusa Pacific University is less expensive compared to the major brand names in online education such as Phoenix and Kaplan, so there is not much worry there in terms of paying too much for online degrees. You might want to conduct more research on the loans and scholarship programmes here at Azusa Pacific University as compared to other universities, which may offer better deals.
Why you should study there and my personal recommendations
Azusa Pacific University seems to be only good to go to if you are seeking nursing education, teaching and education fields of technology, librarianship courses that are professional and leadership courses. Apart from the four that they offer, other universities have more choices and more diversity, and other universities actually offer more compelling reasons and better deals and offers. The fees are reasonable here at Azusa Pacific University, so that should not be a problem. I would not strongly recommend Azusa Pacific University, but if you are Christian and would like a Christian or Church linked university, Azusa Pacific University might be your cup of tea. Do research on other competitive universities with respect to nursing, education technology, librarianship and leadership progammes. Therefore it depends on your perspective and your religion, perhaps, in addition to your online degree subject choice. Cheers!
