Fort Hays State University Virtual College online degrees review

Brief look at the university - Fort Hays State University

Fort Hays State University is a public and coed university, offering both physical campus based degrees and online degrees, based in Hays, Kansas in the USA. It is governed by the Kanas Board of Regents and has a huge student base. Fort Hays State University was founded in 1902 and this university is very famous and recognised in the region. The interesting thing about this university is that there was a 95 year old woman called Nola Ochs who graduated from it, the oldest woman in the world to graduate from university according to Wikipedia. In addition, apart from that interesting fact about the university, there is also apparently an often reported and very famous paranormal sighting in Fort Hays State University called the "Blue Light Lady". (It would be really interesting for us and the university if someone actually studied there and saw the ghost and recorded it down on tape or something.)

Fort Hays State University seems to be very colourful and very interesting indeed. Apparently there are also cultural celebrations of German heritage, from Oktoberfest to other German festivals and German cultural events. Fort Hays State University is colourful and unique, and you might be pleased to know that there are no known controversies surrounding Fort Hays State University.

Fort Hays State University Virtual College is the online wing of Fort Hays State University, and it is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools, and we will have a look at the online degrees, programmes, and courses offered.

Which courses are offered at Fort Hays State University Virtual College

Fort Hays State University Virtual College offers certificate programmes, bachelors, masters and associate degrees. A brief survey of their bachelors programmes suggests that they are specialised in Early Childhood education, IT, and primarily management, with Business Administration in Management, Business Adminstration in Marketing, or Business Communication, or Management Information Systems. Hence it would seem that for a bachelor's degree one should go for either education, IT or management. Uniquely, Fort Hays State University Virtual College has a General Studies programme. This is called a Bachelor of General Studies and is a flexible programme that lets you decide and come up with your own course of study. This degree programme is rather unlike other universities, where you have to pick and choose from their selection, as Fort Hays State University Virtual College's General Studies programme allows you to basically tailor make and invent your own degree. It might be worth looking into and researching on for your bachelor's degree or online degree. An Associate of General Studies is similar to the Bachelors but on a lower level. The key idea is still the same - to make and design your own online degree and charter your own online education.

For masters programmes, Fort Hays State University Virtual College seems to offer a lot in the way of nursing, with nursing education, nursing adminstration, and a very interesting family nurse practitioner track. Nursing seems to be a major online degree subject here. Fort Hays State University Virtual College also offers masters of science in education: education, educational administration, special education and more. I would say that if you want to get a degree in nursing or education, you might want to consider doing your masters with Fort Hays State University Virtual College since they specialise in these kinds of masters programmes and online degrees.

Finance and other matters at Fort Hays State University Virtual College

The tuition fees here at Fort Hays State University Virtual College are said to be very affordable, discounting books and texts which are not included in the course fees. Military personnel are apparently not given additional advantages or benefits, because the costs are already rather low compared to other universities. I would suspect though that the usual loans and scholarships would apply to Fort Hays State University Virtual College, so do check those out if you are interested. I have not seen any specific tables or charts on the Fort Hays State University Virtual College's website detailing the loan benefits and the financial assistance, though. More research into the tuition fees of the degrees and various degree levels is required on your part.

Why you should study there and my recommendations

Fort Hays State University Virtual College has many advantages - it's a state and public university; it is recognised and accredited; it has no known controversies; the quality of the teaching is the same as the actual physical campus; and it is relatively affordable compared to Kaplan and Phoenix. Fort Hays State University Virtual College's General Studies programme is also very interesting and might be worth your time and effort. In addition, their bachelors in management, IT and education seem to be very good online degrees, and you might be interested in those subjects. For masters programmes, I would say that if you want to get a masters degree in nursing or education, you might want to consider doing your masters specifically and specially with Fort Hays State University Virtual College since they specialise in these kinds of masters programmes and online degrees. Simply - management, education, nursing and IT would be good ideas and be good online degrees to do here at Fort Hays State University. I would give Fort Hays State University a good rating and recommend it quite strongly, although I give my usual and very obvious caveat that more research is needed. Cheers!
