Are you interested in taking your education to the next level through an online degree at Columbia University? The School of Professional Studies (SPS) invites you to attend one of our online information sessions, What It's Really Like to Learn Virtually.

During these live sessions, you will hear from current online students and graduates, who will discuss:

  • choosing the program option that worked best for them
  • the advantages of studying online
  • managing a work-life-school balance
  • how they applied classroom knowledge to their professional roles and responsibilities

In addition, faculty from each degree program will be available for breakout sessions to answer your questions.
