Starting Fresh, Not Starting Over
You’ve already done the work—you should get credit for every step, whether it was a previous course, military training or professional certification. 67% of our program requirements may be completed through transfer credits or prior training.1 That’s a lot of saved time and money!
Support Where It Matters
RU Ready to feel supported at every step? 24/7 technical support, career advising, peer-to-peer mentoring and mental health support, and internationally recognized online tutoring are just a few of the ways we'll help you find a healthy balance between school and the rest of your life.
Online Degree Programs
A lot of colleges can say they have online classes—but how many can say they have 20+ years of experience designing and teaching online? Rasmussen University is one of them! You'll work with faculty trained specifically to teach and mentor online, use flexible learning options and virtual labs, work online with academic support teams and tap into 400,000+ electronic resources.
Education at Your Pace
Empowered Learning®, our competency-based education model, lets you take more control of your learning. Instead of tests, papers and a one-size-fits-all schedule, you manage your pace and create the kind of projects you'd see in a workplace. Plus, you’ll still stay connected to faculty and peers.
