Planning for College

Resources

• Accredited Online Colleges: Learn more about online and offline degree programs in your field. Use caution: some online colleges are for-profit, meaning they are run by private organizations and might spend your tuition on business-related endeavors. Most colleges operate as nonprofits, meaning your tuition is spent to improve your education. Do some research on the difference between for-profit and nonprofit colleges to see which type you’re interested in attending.
• Massive Online Open Courses (MOOCs): are a great way to pursue your interests and increase your knowledge of a given subject area, but be advised that they do not translate easily into college credit. Plan to use MOOCs as a personal enrichment tool, and not as formal education.
• Affordable Colleges Online: A directory of online colleges that are affordable and that offer a high return-on-investment (ROI). When a college has a high ROI, it means that graduates of that college have an average lifetime income that far exceeds the total cost of their degree.
