How to prepare for an online program

Is online learning right for me?

Just like face-to-face classes, online learning can differ depending on the instructor and the subject. Fully online courses often require more time and energy than regular classes. Although they are convenient and flexible, you must be disciplined enough to set aside time to study and participate.

Online Courses vs Online Program

Online-Courses: These courses can be taken by students enrolled in either an online or on-campus program. They are offered to students through multiple types of online delivery including; Blended or Hybrid, online asynchronous, and/or synchronous online courses virtually (Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, social distancing and quarantining practices had on-campus students considering online options too).


Online-Programs: These programs are designed to be completed entirely online offering students the flexibility to learn on their own schedule (within a specific timeframe). Courses within an online program are likely asynchronous, allowing students to login independently of a set time to participate with instructional materials.

成人头条 State students enrolled in online programs are on-average 32 years old and are often employed full-time while care taking for or raising a family as well as actively engaging in their communities. 

Academic Calendar

WSU Application and Registration

Application Deadlines

成人头条 State does not have specific application deadlines. It all depends on which semester you would like to start and giving yourself plenty of time to submit application materials. The Academic Calendar can help you know when school starts and the last day to enroll.

Due to the volume of applications we get near the first day of class, applications may take longer to process. We encourage prospective students to apply early because it will allow for the most flexibility when enrolling in classes and gives students more time to prepare for the upcoming semester.

I decided to return to college sixteen years after I graduated high school, so I knew that an online program would allow me the flexibility I needed to attend classes, work at my own pace, and still be mentally, emotionally and physically supportive to my family.
