About Online Learning
We understand that today's student cannot always relocate or adjust their schedules to complete or advance their education. Whether you're at home, on the road, or traveling outside the U.S., OSU Extended Campus can open the door for you to pursue your educational goals. The majority of Extended Campus courses are delivered online and can be conveniently accessed anytime, from anyplace. We like to call it a flexible learning solution.
Online Learning Effectiveness

Your Online Classroom
Extended Campus online courses are developed exclusively for the virtual classroom by experts engaged in the latest distance education technologies. Student-instructor and student-student interactions are highly interactive and typically occur via online "discussion boards" where you can post comments viewed by all or a select group.
