Linfield’s accredited online college is moving up in the rankings of the “Best Online Bachelor’s Programs” in America. Linfield moved up to 63rd in recent rankings released by U.S. News and World Report, up from a ranking of 136th just two years ago.
Linfield received its highest marks for student services and technology, where it was ranked 17th, and student engagement, where it ranked 59th. It is the highest ranked online college program among private, liberal arts colleges in Oregon, and is second only to Oregon State University among all Oregon colleges.
“People looking to enhance their career by earning their degree are increasingly recognizing the value of a degree from Linfield College,” said Laura Brener, director of online and continuing education at Linfield. “Our emphasis on a personalized education that works with students to meet their goals is reflected in these ratings.”
Linfield College has been involved in online education since the late 1990s. The relationship it shares with the residential campus strengthens the opportunities for online students.
