Intelligent.com Names VSU a Top University

VALDOSTA — Valdosta State University earned multiple highly ranked spots on Intelligent.com’s list of the nation’s Best Online Degrees of 2022.

Intelligent.com researchers analyzed academic programs at thousands of colleges and universities across the United States, scoring them on course strength, faculty, reputation, flexibility, student readiness, return on investment, cost, and student engagement.  

The higher education experts at Intelligent.com said VSU “offers flexible distance learning that appeals to busy adults as well as hybrid models that include on-campus and online formats.” They also recognized VSU’s efforts to “help students enhance and develop advanced skills for a variety of in-demand positions.”

VSU is committed to making its highly ranked online degree programs accessible to as many people as possible and is always looking for ways to meet the changing needs of learners in Georgia and beyond. In April 2021 the Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia approved VSU's request to establish a special Online College for Career Advancement for nontraditional students who want to earn a degree.
