Opportunities such as alternative learning, student guarantees, and dual opportunity are available. Telecourses are a modern, convenient way to earn college credit at home. Students may view telecourse lessons at home through Post Newsweek Cable channel 18. Students may also view lessons in the Learning Resource Center, or, if they wish, have copies of telecourse lessons made for them. Students visit the campus for orientation, conferences with the instructor and exams.
Instructors are available for telephone conferences and personal conferences.
Full college credit is awarded upon successful completion of an ITV course. Credit hours are equivalent to those offered on campus. Each course requires commitment of time equal to that required by an on-campus course. A realistic evaluation of other obligations should be made before a student decides how many credit hours to undertake. Instructional Televised Courses are offered in General Biology, General Biology Lab, Introduction to Computer Science, Principles of Economics, Composition and Rhetoric, U.S. Government, United States History, General Psychology, Geology, Business Environment, Beginning Spanish and Introductory Sociology.
