Monthly class-starts allow learners to begin and proceed at their own pace. This means while working within the course term, you decide when to access and complete required weekly assignments.
Rather than strict academic requirements, CalSouthern stresses personal achievement, intellectual curiosity and a passion for learning. No potential learner is denied enrollment into an associate or baccalaureate program, however, all prospective learners must meet CalSouthern’s admissions requirements.

Above all is the CalSouthern pledge that all-online education and personalized attention don’t have to be mutually exclusive. Unique to the University, our faculty mentors personally guide learners through the program to tangibly apply course material to their lives and careers.

The quality of the courses and the quality of the academic content that I would be accessing was very compelling to me. And it being 100% online is exactly what I needed. I was able to study from anywhere from New York City, from Colombia, or wherever I was on the go so very friendly and adaptable.
