VIRGINIA BEACH, VA (Jan. 24, 2023) – Regent University continues to hold the No. 1 spot as the Best Online Bachelor’s Program in Virginia, according to the newly-released rankings from the 2023 U.S. News & World Report Best Online Programs listing. It’s the 11th year in a row that Regent has secured this prestigious ranking.
“This recognition affirms our efforts to provide a transformative learning experience that prepares our students to lead in career fields that are paced by the speed of technology,” said Dr. William L. Hathaway, Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs at Regent University. “Enabling our students to learn from anywhere in the world, on their schedules, provides them with the tools and the time needed to change the world.”
U.S. News & World Report evaluated more than 1,720 online bachelor’s and master’s programs in four key categories: faculty credentials and training, student engagement, student services and technology, and surveys of high-ranking academic officials. Faculty credentials measure how closely the online instructor’s credentials mirror on-campus faculty’s credentials. Engagement refers to how well the degree programs allow students to interact with professors and fellow students. Student services and technology evaluates the various tools and methods used to enable students to complete their courses at a distance. Student excellence is also considered at the graduate level to measure proven aptitudes, ambitions and accomplishments of students who enter an online program.
“Regent’s extensive online programs provide students the benefit of full control over their studies and ultimately their futures,” said Dr. Jason D. Baker, Associate Vice President for Academic Innovation and Design. “Distance and schedules are no longer obstacles for those seeking to advance their calling through education. Providing and cultivating excellence will continue to be Regent’s assignment—on campus and online.”
