Schools Offering Foreign Language Programs Entirely Online?

<p>Hello,</p>

<p>I am interested in pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Spanish. </p>

<p>I already hold a Bachelor of Science degree in an IT field and I am employed full-time in the IT sector. My desire to pursue a degree in Spanish is not motivated by career goals, but rather is something I want to undertake for personal reasons. However, due to my full-time employment, I have an absolute requirement that my next degree program is carried out entirely online.</p>

<p>I have done some preliminary research, but I am having a hard time finding any schools which offer foreign language programs fully online. I ran across a few schools offering 100- and 200-level classes online, but that is not quite what I am looking for. I know that the concept of studying a foreign language virtually is a bit awkward, but surely someone must offer such a program?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.</p>

<p>I noticed that New Mexico State University offers a Master’s online, but a Bachelor’s degree is required first.</p>

<p>Anyone? Thanks…</p>

<p>Thomas Edison State College in NJ is an on-line public college. They offer 6 levels of Spanish but not sure if they grant an undergraduate degree. They may allow you to create your own major. I would check their web site.</p>

<p>Tom, thanks for the suggestion. I went to Edison’s website and took a look around. I do see the 6 levels of Spanish which they offer, but these courses appear to be offline only. Under the heading of Online Courses, there is no Spanish listed.</p>

<p>Any other suggestions?</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>

<p>The University of London’s External Programme offers several foreign language bachelors degrees. They offer a respected distance learning degree in Spanish and Latin American Studies via Birkbeck, one of their constituent universities:

<p>The U of London has been offering distance learning degrees for over a century, and its degrees are extremely well respected.</p>
