• All of Auburn’s distance courses and programs are of the same high quality and are taught by the same faculty as our traditional, campus offerings. Our accrediting agency, the Southern Association of Colleges & Schools requires that of us so you can be assured that you are receiving a top quality education in all of our courses.
• Many students report that they actually interact with their peers and instructors to a greater degree in distance classes than they do in traditional classes.
• Distance education courses are not easier or less time consuming than traditional courses although in many cases, they do allow for greater flexibility in scheduling.
• In general, successful distance learners tend to be highly motivated, goal- oriented learners that are committed to class attendance, participation, and timely assignment completion. Many are employed, caregivers, and over 25 years of age.
