Most Degree and Certificate Programs Are Offered Completely Online
The course work of most of our degree and certificate programs is completed online and there is no need to attend classes in residence at a Penn State campus. However, most undergraduate courses do have proctored examinations. A few graduate level programs do require a short residency. You may confirm specific program requirements through the links below:
