Strayer University—A faster, more flexible way to earn your degree
You’re an adult with responsibilities—a job, a family, and personal commitments. Continuing your education is important to you, but that goal must fit into your life, not overwhelm it.

Strayer University understands. For over 110 years we have been providing working adults with many options and opportunities to complete a degree, prepare for professional certification, or just build their knowledge base. With flexible schedules, evening and weekend classes and online courses, Strayer University makes continuing your education not just possible, but remarkably convenient.

Strayer can help you fit education, along with career, family and personal responsibilities, into your real and challenging life.

You can apply, attend classes, take exams and complete your degree online, without ever setting foot on campus.Making the very most of online education, we offer both synchronous, real-time online courses and asynchronous courses that you can attend on your own schedule.

• Strayer University Online classes are small—an arrangement that encourages active sharing of ideas and experiences.
• Many of Strayer University’s professors not only teach, but also work in their fields and bring a wealth of experience to the classroom.

Attending Class Online
because technology lets us offer the ultimate convenience.

Online education at Strayer University not only lets you attend class from any computer with access to the Internet, but gives you the option of either attending online courses in real-time or completing your online coursework when it is most convenient for you.

Synchronous Courses
In a synchronous online course, students and instructors all participate at the same day and time and interact in real-time, just as you would in a regular classroom. With this “virtual classroom,” you’ll hear live audio from the professor, supported by a live, “virtual” whiteboard, and you’ll be able to communicate in real-time via text with your professor and classmates.

Asynchronous Courses
Asynchronous courses let students and instructors participate at different times that fit their schedules. You can attend class any time, 24/7, accessing recorded audio lectures, video presentations and supporting materials via the Internet. In addition, you have the option of participating in real-time chats.
