What's It Like to Learn Online?

Just like a campus classroom, a Walden online classroom features a syllabus with readings and assignments. You will benefit from a collegial learning environment that includes faculty guided classroom discussions and the open exchange of student experiences and perspectives.

In some Walden degree programs, you may also participate in face-to-face residencies offered at locations around the United States and abroad.

A Walden online classroom offers you:

• A flexible schedule so you can participate when it's convenient for you, within an assigned period
• Opportunities to network with faculty and students from across the United States and possibly around the world
• Ability to log in to your courses from remote locations, with no commutes to campus
• Access at any time via email to faculty or, in some programs, to national experts
