Yes. From your first class to your last, all course requirements can be met in the online format.

No. Coastal Online classes are "asynchronous," which means students log in and complete the work on their own time.

While it depends on a number of factors, all Coastal Online programs are designed to be self-paced. Students wishing to complete their programs as quickly as possible may finish in a few semesters, while those who need to take things at a slower pace may take a little longer. Your Coastal Online academic advisor will discuss your goals with you and help you design a plan that is customized to you and your timeline.

Coastal Online students are responsible for securing access to their own computers and reliable access to the internet. We are happy to provide some recommendations for you on what technology works best via our TechSTART page.

Online learning can be very rewarding. It is ideal for students who need flexibility in terms of time and space. You can literally engage in your coursework from anywhere at any time. However, it does take more discipline and concentration at times. In-class learning can be engaging, but obviously, less flexible. At Coastal, however, no matter which option you choose, you will have the support of your faculty member, your Mariner Success Crew, the ATTIC, your academic advisor, and your Coastal Online team to help you get connected with the help you need.
