Review course dates and get started on your course
Online courses provide learners with a convenient and flexible way to gain a quality education. While some courses offer a flexible start date with 16 weeks to complete the work, other courses adhere to the traditional semester dates. Online courses do not require face-to-face meetings, and unless otherwise noted are conducted entirely online.
Online courses typically utilize course management systems such as Moodle or WebVista, or an instructor created website. Once registered, students may access their courses by logging onto the myU portal, or by logging directly into the course management system (Moodle or WebVista).
