Education

All of the degree programs offered at CSU are online. Accomplished and highly-committed faculty and advisors will walk through every step of the way with students to provide personalized support, mentorship, and direction. There are no entrance exams required, courses start monthly, and students work on their own time starting and stopping coursework whenever needed. Online education is an asset in developing professionals to be knowledgeable in virtual communication, social media, and using computer programs to conduct business.

Student Life

Online students have the advantage of utilizing the social media outlets to connect with peers, engage with faculty and staff, and network with professionals on Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Google+. The Learning Center provides full access to everything a student needs to navigate and conquer the online learning environment. It uses Microsoft Office 365, a cloud-based program that gives students the ability to access all of their coursework from any device and from anywhere that has an internet connection. Faculty members can be reached through email or Skype. The center also provides CSU news, research resources, writing assistance, guest lectures, study tools, an online library with on-call librarians, and the Content Section with inspirational and real-life stories from current business students and alumni.
