Strayer University can help you achieve your goals.
The value of a degree or certification is only as high as the standards of the university that confers it. For over 115 years, Strayer University has been dedicated to ensuring the quality of our instructors and curricula, while also providing the tools and support necessary for you to achieve your goals.
Accommodating Class Schedules. Attend day and evening classes seven days a week at a campus near you or online using our synchronous (real time) and/or asynchronous (any time) class formats. Our quarter system allows you to take more classes in a year than the traditional semester system, so you can earn your degree faster than you might expect.
Qualified Faculty, Contemporary Curriculum. Since our founding, Strayer University has consistently worked to achieve the highest standards when it comes to the quality of our instructors and curriculum. Our professors bring relevant theoretical and practical knowledge to the classroom that you can put to use immediately on the job.
Student Support. Our faculty advisors will help you design the appropriate plan to achieve your objectives and career goals. In addition, our Business Office can provide information about financing options for eligible students.
Work/Life Learning Credit. Strayer University offers college credit for your previous work and life experience, education, and equivalency exams. These qualifying credits may apply toward the completion of your degree.
Career Development Assistance. We offer all our students career information, job referrals, and resume assistance on an individual one-to-one basis.
Education for the way you live and learn.
Strayer University understands that our students' schedules are demanding. That's why we offer three educational formats to make getting to class more practical and convenient: campus, online synchronous, and online asynchronous.
Participate in dynamic classes on campus. Working students can learn in the traditional classroom setting at the times that fit their schedule. Day and evening classes are offered seven days a week at a campus near your home or office. There are more than 55 campuses in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, New Jersey, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
Online synchronous format. Synchronous classes meet online on the same day and time every week. With this format, you’ll hear live audio from the professor, supported by a "virtual blackboard". You can also use real-time text messaging to ask questions or interact with your professor and classmates.
Online asynchronous format. Online asynchronous classes provide the maximum scheduling flexibility, allowing you to attend class any time, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. With this format, you’ll access recorded audio lectures, video presentations, and other instructional materials via the Internet. You'll also participate in online discussions via chat, which allow for more interaction among classmates and the professor.
The education you need to succeed.
When you invest time and money in your education, you want quality and value. At Strayer University, we offer the highest caliber of education, in proven educational formats. By continuously updating and expanding our curricula, we ensure that our students are well-prepared to excel in today's dynamic workplace.
