See how you can save on your tuition. You may be able to transfer credits from courses you completed at other accredited institutions, get tuition assistance through your employer, or receive a discount if you’ve served in the military. You also might be eligible for a scholarship—enroll in a qualified program, apply for the scholarship, and meet the eligibility requirements.
If you’re considering an online degree, you probably have needs, expectations, and priorities that aren’t met in a traditional, brick-and-mortar school. At Capella, we strive to understand where you’re coming from, to meet and exceed your expectations for what online learning can be. We regularly measure student satisfaction with standardized surveys.
