November 14, 2008, Newsletter Issue #140: Graduation Rates For Online Students
1
Tip of the Week
There are a lot of things to consider when searching for the perfect academic fit for your goals. Naturally, accreditation comes into play. You want your final degree or diploma to be recognized in industry, in order to find ultimate employment. You want a place where the quality of the education is high, the methodology of instruction suits your learning style, and has a good reputation.
One of the most important questions to ask when applying for an online business school or university is, “What percentage of students successfully complete and graduate from the program?” This is important as it directly relates to the program itself. If there are problems with the learning outcomes, curriculum, or faculty teaching the program, people tend to give up and walk away. A high drop-out rate could indicate a problem with the curriculum, or problems with the overall integrity of the program.
In addition to asking about graduation rates, find out if the school/university has testimonials to offer, recent grads you can talk to, or some other indication of their worth as a post-secondary institution. After all, it’s your time, money, and future on the line. Make sure to ask the right questions.
