online degree programs psychology | Something new…
Hello my dorm room buddy
Hope all is well and your exams didn’t blow your mind…
I came across this story this other day and thought it was quite interesting.
Most universites know how to reach out new students, Tiffin University is doing something no other school has tried:
They create an online college just to get students to its school.
Ivy Bridge College is an online-only school developed and run by Tiffin University
offering associate degrees which can open up doors to a four-year degree at Tiffin
and other schools.
Just what is Tiffin?
Well, they are an independent, coeducational institution that has been educating
students since 1888, and they’ve achieved national recognition for its accredited
on-campus and online courses.
Tiffin’s Ivy Bridge program is designed particularly to help students who need extra
academic assistance to succeed and will team students with coaches who will monitor
their progress.
Specifically, Ivy Bridge College offers:
Log On Anytime. Students can log on to take classes at any time, setting their own
schedule, and completing the program in as little as 20 months.
Connection with teachers and students. The school is encouraging email contact with
teachers, news group discussions, online chats, and office hours. Students will be
able to connect with each other as well.
A planned path. Ivy Bridge has agreements in place with Tiffin University and dozens
of other colleges and universities throughout the United States. These agreements
make it easier for students to be accepted into and to transfer credits to four-year
institutions once they have completed their Ivy Bridge degree.
Earn a highly prized degree. Ivy Bridge students will earn a Tiffin University degree,
which is authorized by the Ohio Board of Regents and accredited by the North Central
Association of Colleges and Schools Commission (NCA) and by the Association of
Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).
Applications for new students is currently under way, so if you’re still just thinking about starting with an online course - stop thinking and start doing!
