In recent years, online degrees have bridged the financial and geographical gap for those wanting to earn a degree. I've compiled a list of top schools offering budget-friendly online graduate degree programs that cater to diverse needs and career aspirations. Most of these schools are not faith-based, but each has a reputation for providing quality education and ensuring their programs are accessible to everyone. Whether you're looking to advance in your current field or embark on a new career path, these schools offer the flexibility and affordability you need to achieve your educational goals without breaking the bank.
The schools in the list below:
Are fully accredited
Have a tuition rate of $600 per unit or less
Offer low tuition or in-state tuition/no out-of-state tuition rates for online students
Feature more than one online degree program
Vary in being on a quarter system or semester system
Please take time to check out the various degree programs at any school that might interest you. I have endeavored to list the most recent tuition rates, though it is still your responsibility to investigate all aspects of the schools and their programs.
If you want a graduate degree in ministry/theology/biblical studies, check out my blog posts about 100% online ministry/theology masters degrees in the USA, overseas theology graduate degrees, and distance learning grad degrees in New Testament studies.
The list will be updated as I learn about schools offering new programs.
