Welcome!
Want a more convenient way to take classes? If so, you can earn your degree or certificate through ASUB Online. Or, you can take a few online classes to help balance your face-to-face classes with your everyday life.
How do you know if you would succeed in an online class?
Take this short SURVEY to see if you might be successful in an online class. If the results say yes, keep in mind that you may want to make sure you choose classes you do not struggle in. Example - if math is not one of your strong areas, you may want to take it in a face-to-face or Internet assisted environment.
