CalSouthern Advantages

At CalSouthern, new classes begin on the first of each month, which makes scheduling coursework easy. Courses are 8 or 16 weeks, depending on the program. Our programs are designed to enable you to take two or more courses in each term or semester. You can also schedule courses more frequently at CalSouthern. Through close work with your Faculty Mentor, you can complete courses on your own schedule and begin new courses every month if you are ready. This flexibility can help you plan your education around your career and personal life.

At CalSouthern, tuition and fees are affordable! We understand that you may work full-time, have children, and must fulfill other outside commitments. Thus, we designed our online degree programs with you in mind. A degree at CalSouthern costs less than half of what you would expect to pay. In addition, CalSouthern’s distance learning format saves you the time, hassle, and cost of commuting to a campus and sitting through long lectures.

Unlike traditional universities and other online schools, you won't have to wait for months to start your first course at CalSouthern. Our year-round schedule with monthly starts means that you can start quickly, on the first of each month. Most students begin their first course the month after their application for admission is completed.

We believe that you can achieve your educational goals 100% online. Residency or occasional campus visits can greatly increase the cost of your education by thousands of dollars if you need to travel to a campus or colloquium site. If you are comparing online colleges and universities, we encourage you to consider the added costs of other schools' residency requirements in addition to tuition.

You never have to leave your home or office to come to a classroom. The reason for our success is simple. CalSouthern knows how to combine a unique online learning approach with the tools and techniques that make it easy for our students to succeed.
