Hey, anyone know of any good online colleges in North Carolina that are military-friendly? I'm hoping to join the military after high school, but I still want to further my education remotely. Any help would be appreciated.
Sure, I can help provide some direction on that. North Carolina has a significant military population and many of its colleges and universities provide services specifically catered to military members.
One institution that you might want to consider is the University of North Carolina. It offers several online degree programs and has a dedicated Office of Veterans Affairs that could provide unique support to you as a military service member.
East Carolina University has an Office of Military Outreach and also has a variety of online programs that you could consider. They provide support and resources for military students and veterans which could be helpful.
Fayetteville State University is another that is well known for being military-friendly and also offers several online degree programs. It's located near Fort Bragg, so they are very experienced with serving military students.
While looking at these options, make sure to check what kind of military benefits they offer and if they have any special services or resources for military students. It might also be worth reaching out to these schools to express interest and see if they could provide more detailed guidance considering your circumstances.
Lastly, always be certain that a school's online offerings are accredited this ensures that your degree is legitimate and up to standards. A college's accreditation status can usually be found on their website, but if not, don't hesitate to ask the admissions department when contacting them! Good luck with your search!
