Advantages of Learning Online
An exciting future is on your horizon. You've got things to do, places to go and interesting people to meet. For an increasing number of high school students, pursuing a college education online rather than at a traditional university offers many advantages.

At Stonecliffe College Online, an academic division of Colorado Technical University, we're dedicated to helping students just like you make a smooth, comfortable transition from your high school lifestyle into the "real world" of online education. Your life, your schedule...your rules.

As you consider the advantages of earning your Associate's degree through Stonecliffe College Online, you may discover a number of unique advantages our school offers over traditional universities. Here are just a few:

The flexibility to take control of your education
The degree programs offered through Stonecliffe College Online are flexible to allow you a significant amount of control over where, when and how fast you learn. Our PACE™ Learning System (Practical Approach to College Education) emphasizes convenience and anytime access to accommodate today's demanding lifestyles and complicated schedules.

You'll have the freedom to choose an accelerated pace or a decelerated pace to accommodate the demands of your current lifestyle. Whether you choose to take one or two courses at a time, the Associate's degree programs offered through Stonecliffe College Online are designed to ensure you'll be on the receiving end of a quality learning experience.

The convenience of living at home
As an online student, you'll have the advantage of living at home in an environment that is comfortable, familiar and convenient. You'll maintain the nearby support of your family and friends. You'll be able to save the huge expense of paying for room and board at a faraway school. And you won't have to endure mysterious dorm food!

Anytime access to your studies
Many incoming students find Stonecliffe College Online to be an ideal setting for advancing their knowledge and helping them to prepare for their professional futures. On our exciting Virtual Campus, you'll take one or two courses at a time, enabling you to immerse yourself in your studies, gain confidence and knowledge as you learn and discover personal, professional and academic pathways to pursue as you progress through your chosen degree program.

You'll experience ongoing interaction with your instructors and fellow students via email, chat sessions and discussion boards. You'll study on your own time, anytime, via rich multimedia classes you can pause, rewind and fast-forward. And you'll complete meaningful group projects designed to enable you to develop team-oriented, goal-based skills that can pay dividends in your professional future.

The freedom to live your life
By now, you know what kind of student you are. You've figured out whether you're a "get it done today" type or an "I'll finish it on the weekend" person. And either way, it's okay. Stonecliffe College Online recognizes that there are all types of students living all kinds of lives. That's why we offer degree programs that put you in charge of the way to best take advantage of your studies.

The technology you already know how to use
Learning at Stonecliffe College Online is a very cool, interactive experience. Best of all, the technology we use to deliver our courses to any Internet-connected computer are the same kinds of programs you've probably been using in high school: rich multimedia, email, real-time chat sessions. And because you're already familiar with the tools, you should be able to make a smooth transition to become an online college student.

The ability to learn from outstanding instructors
At Stonecliffe College Online, courses are taught by instructors who are industry-experienced in the fields they teach. They'll bring situation-specific relevance to every course, ensuring that you are prepared for real-life challenges after you graduate.
