JustColleges Partners with Online Accredited Colleges to Help People Get a Quality Education That Meets the Needs of Their Schedules

Work, family, travel -- not sure how you can take your career goals to the next level? Enter the era of online degree programs.

Denver, CO (PRWEB) September 23, 2005 --- According to U.S. Census Bureau statistics, people with a bachelor's degree earn over 60 percent more on average than those with only a high school diploma. Over a lifetime, the gap in earning potential between a high school diploma and a B.A. (or higher) is more than $1 million.

Despite this huge gap in earnings, only 21 percent of all adults over the age of 25 have college degrees. In a national newspaper survey asking what the readers biggest regrets were, most Americans said that they regretted not continuing with their education.

In order to combat this, JustColleges has partnered with universities that offer students the opportunity to pursue their education entirely online hence providing them with maximum flexibility as they are able to enroll on either an open enrollment basis (at their convenience) or together with a regularly scheduled class cohort group. Students have the convenience of earning a degree while managing a job, home, or family, with no on-campus attendance required.

Convenient, Flexible, Affordable -- Over twenty five accredited universities such as Capella University, University of Phoenix, Regis University, Walden University, University of Liverpool and New York Institute of Technologys Ellis College have listed their programs and are providing information to students. These universities focus on combining the best of traditional higher education with the flexibility and affordability of online delivery resulting in a quick return on learning investment. In addition, unlike some colleges that require students to take courses in a specific order, on specific dates with a specific group of people, these colleges dont get that specific. Their Development Counselors work out a plan that is tailored to each student. Many universities also offer students the choice to pay by the course; this eliminates the need for a major up-front investment making higher education affordable to a much larger audience.

Whether you're looking to attend college for the first time, looking to enhance your career or start an entirely new one, these colleges have an online degree program for you. Online degrees which were once offered in just a few subjects now span a whole range of subjects ranging from Computer Science to Healthcare Management to Homeland Security to Nursing to the MBA. Students seeking to earn a high-quality degree or certificate online can now search from JustColleges comprehensive directory of online colleges that are categorized by subject and degree type, hence making it easy for the student to find the right college.

Upon finding the right college(s) students then have the opportunity to request more information directly from each college. College counselors then get back to the students providing them with in-depth information on the programs offered. All in all the process is extremely streamlined and students dont have to spend hours browsing on various websites.

In addition to the online college directory students can also find information and answers to the most popular distance learning questions, such as their credibility and how different it is from traditional learning. Also provided within the site are articles on college life, graduate school, essays and test preparation tips.
