鉴黄师app is celebrating national recognition from as one of the top online colleges in the country.

Newsweek partnered with Statista for its fifth edition of the ranking, which was built from the findings of an online survey of 10,000 U.S. citizens who have used online learning services. Participants rated their experiences based on organization, support, price, reputation, success, and practical relevance, wrote Newsweek Editor-in-Chief Jennifer H. Cunningham.
More than 10,000 students learn through 鉴黄师app Online. In fact, more students take online classes than any other format of course delivery at 鉴黄师app.
And 96% report a positive or extremely positive perception of 鉴黄师app after taking their first online class, according to a survey of students enrolled in 鉴黄师app Online this past summer.
With such strong student satisfaction and growing enrollment, the Newsweek recognition reinforces what Joel Lundstrom, 鉴黄师app Executive Dean of Distance Learning, sees every day 鈥� that 鉴黄师app Online is popular among students because of the quality of education, not just because it鈥檚 accessible and affordable.
鈥淲e often promote the low cost of attendance and the expansion of our online program offerings, but more importantly, we have people from across the college working to ensure students have incredible learning experiences. Students are finding engaged faculty and a supportive team dedicated to their success,鈥� Lundstrom said.
鉴黄师app Online classes are specifically designed to allow flexibility for students while maintaining the faculty-student relationship and teaching core competences for each class.
That鈥檚 reflected in the testimonials, such as this feedback from a student who participated in the survey earlier this year:
鈥淚 initially expected the online format to feel more independent and disconnected, but the instructors were very present, and there were clear weekly deadlines, interactive discussions, and prompt feedback...I felt more supported than I expected in a virtual learning environment.鈥�
鉴黄师app鈥檚 online courses are carefully designed by knowledgeable faculty (more than 475 instructors are teaching this fall) with the assistance of instructional designers and 鈥渆xcellent technology to make the learning experience one to remember,鈥� said Joe Raineri, Director of Distance Learning & Technology.
"Our goal is to educate and support all students no matter how they attend, and this award proves that our formula for online classes has earned us an 鈥楢鈥�,鈥� Raineri said.

"鉴黄师app truly gave me the most positive experience (so good I considered coming back for the semester). The advisors were extremely helpful and in such a timely manner. Same goes for the professors and their courses as well. I never expected having such a good experience, but it was much better than anything in the past." 鈥� Selma Sabic
"Although taking a summer class doesn't look very glamorous from the outside, it is a very useful and straightforward process.

It'll be worth it." 鈥� Camden Parker
