Ivy League universities offer online degrees & certificates
Ivy League dreams? Make them a reality. Although you may not be able to physically commute to an Ivy League campus, that shouldn’t keep you from “attending” classes at an Ivy League university. By far, Columbia, Harvard, and Cornell have the most extensive online programs. I give Penn, Dartmouth, and Yale an honorable mention. At this time, Brown and Princeton are the only Ivy League universities not offering some type of online program (but I will keep you posted if they do). Columbia University Columbia University currently offers more than 30 online degree programs through their Engineering department. Degrees range from Computer Science and Applied Mathematics to Mechanical Engineering and Methods in Finance. The Columbia Video Network (CVN) allows students around the globe to pursue residency-free, fully accredited engineering courses and degree programs via the internet. To see a complete list of online degrees and courses offered, visit my Columbia University online degree review. In addition to the Engineering department, Columbia University’s Teacher’s College also offer over 300 online courses and a number of certificate programs ranging from financial planning in education to project management.

Cornell University
Cornell University currently offers 19 online certificate programs. Depending on the certificate, you will be required to complete between four and twelve courses. Tuition for certificate programs varies depending on the number of courses required and the school offering the program. Plan on spending between $2150 and $10500 for tuition. For more information, visit my Cornell University online certificate review posting. Harvard University Through its Extension School, Harvard University is now offering dozens of online courses. Although they do not offer a complete online degree program (as of yet), they do offer two graduate-level online certificate programs: Applied Sciences and Environmental Management. Alternately, you can simply take a few classes in a subject that interests you such as accounting or linguistics. If you are interested in earning a degree through the Harvard Extension School, you may do so, but you will have to combine online courses with some classroom attendance.
