Class Sizes
The class sizes could range from small to large, typically not more than 25 students. They are individually tailored for each student in the individual forums.
Student/Professor Relationships
The relationship that a student has with the professor in an online setting is personal in the individual forums, where the student can address questions to the professor and get test scores on a personal level. The individual forum is not seen by the class. The relationship that a student has with a professor is solely up to the student. Since it is not a traditional school, the relationship is primarily in writing, but if a student prefers to speak to the professor, the professor makes themselves available at the beginning of the course with introductions and a biography.
Testing & Grading Procedures
The testing is done through the assignments, and there are tutorials for almost every class. The submission of written assignments to the Center for Writing Excellence will give you guidance on grammar, editing, and plagiarism. Originality is also included as a percentage of your grade for assignments.
Typical Lecture - Single Day
Reading materials and discussion forums that are assigned weekly.
Typical Course - Start to Finish
The typical course is nine weeks from start to finish.

Did You Know?
  • There is a College Board Web site that helps you prepare for SATs and other tests that you might have in the future. It is best to be prepared now rather than later when testing; it flows more easily when you know your material. The site is: www.collegeboard.com.
  • Students build up independent leadership skills in an e-campus learning environment.
