Arkansas Business: Ark. colleges doing more to get online students - KTHV

Universities across the state are expanding and strengthening their online degree programs. According to Arkansas Business, it's an attempt to attract some of the 300,000 plus potential students who can't attend classes on a campus. The University of Arkansas system recently launched its online-only university called the eVersity, which is designed to go after Arkansans who have some college credits but aren't in a position, either financially or personally, to attend college to complete or earn a degree. Online degree programs have been around in Arkansas for years and now many Arkansas universities are ramping up those efforts. http://www.thv11.com/story/money/business/arkansas/2015/10/19/arkansas-business-ark-colleges-doing-more-to-get-online-students/74244500/
