Online education at Grand Valley State University highlights the options students have for educational delivery systems. To accommodate students with schedule challenges, several online programs and courses are offered. Starting with a self-assessment survey to determine suitability, the webpage presents an overview of distance education and a brief description of the school’s programs. Online programs available include education with specific disciplines and nursing with optional concentrations and formats. Student support services and resources provided include a tip sheet to develop skills for self-directed learning, admission, financial aid and enrollment, access to academic catalog, bookstore and library, academic advising and tutoring. The website includes an article entitled ‘what can I expect from and online of hybrid course?’ which provides valuable information for distance learners.
