Three of Louisiana Tech University’s online graduate programs have been recognized by AffordableCollegesOnline.org (ACO), a leader in higher education information, for providing students high-quality learning environments. 

Louisiana Tech’s master’s programs in Health Informatics and Information Management, master’s in History, and graduate certificate in Technical Writing were all selected for recognition. 

Only accredited, public, not-for-profit institutions with at least one online program were eligible for placement in these rankings. The primary data points used to identify the best online colleges and programs for 2018 include the following:

  • Acceptance rates
  • Cost of tuition
  • Degrees awarded
  • Graduation rates

“In our seventh annual survey of online learning programs across the nation, we wanted to honor the colleges and universities that are providing innovative ways for students to complete a degree,” said Dan Schuessler, CEO and Founder of AffordableCollegesOnline.org. “These schools are going above and beyond the industry standard to help make online education programs more accessible and affordable.”
