An Online Degree is Valuable

A degree can help you get your dream job and opens up many possibilities and opportunities. Regardless of which format you earn your degree, getting education is always valuable and can help you gain new problem solving skills, critical thinking skills, and skills related to your degree.

“An online degree from a regional public university is held in the same esteem as a traditional degree,”said Alexander Street, Southern Utah University Online Admissions team. “Most employers don't differentiate between traditional degrees and online degrees. No matter how you earn your degree, experience and skills are arguably more important in making up the difference between you and the next candidate in the next job. Programs that offer student services like career planning, tutoring, internships, real-world experience, networking, interview prep, and resume building are more valuable than others.”

Southern Utah University provides many Online Student Resources to help you along your educational journey, including Online Tutoring.

An Online Degree is Flexible

One of the best things about an online degree is its flexibility. Getting a degree online can give you the freedom to parent, work a full time job, or be a distance learner while still attending school. Online degrees allow you to do your schoolwork whenever and wherever you are.

“They provide flexibility to help balance family, friends, work, and school,” said Street. “In short, they are tailor made for working professionals who are passionate about life.”

An Online Degree is More Accessible

Online degrees can have lower costs and tuition than on-campus degrees. SUU has online degrees at an affordable cost to help more students get an education. Online degrees can also help you complete your degree in less time which can get you into your career faster.

“Online degree programs also provide more accessibility, sometimes at a lower cost (time and money),” said Street.
