Program Overview


New Mexico State University technology-based undergraduate degree completion programs are delivered using WebCT, Centra, ITV (Interactive Television), and other learning technologies. Some programs require face-to-face sessions on an NMSU campus, but exceptions or alternatives can be arranged.

Associate of Arts classes are offered via WebCT. Students select courses that fulfill the General Education requirements of New Mexico State University and complete coursework equivalent to the first two years of most bachelor degree programs. Students are encouraged to plan their elective courses to meet other requirements for a specific bachelor degree of interest. It is strongly recommended that the student schedule a phone conference with a contact person to discuss a specific program of study.

Contact Services for Students With Disabilities for accommodation information.
