The Everest Advantage

Top 10 Reasons You Should Earn an Online Degree at Everest

1. Accreditation

Our accreditation sets us apart. It’s an accreditation that shows the strength of our academic programs and instruction. Learn how our accreditation benefits you.

2. Distinguished Faculty

Everest instructors are skilled educators with strong academic backgrounds. Most instructors have years of professional work experience. This unique combination of expertise provides our students with a rich learning experience.

3. National Recognition

Everest has campuses across the United States. When you join an Everest online degree program, you’re part of a national community of students. Our family of Everest graduates and students are all over the country, which shows the strength of our growing community.

4. Career-Focused Education

We concentrate on providing our students with career-focused education. Our instructors are professionals in their field, and can provide you with insights that you can’t get out of a text book.

5. Friendly and Supportive Learning Environment

We have a supportive learning environment by allowing students to work together on group projects, and by providing one-on-one interaction with your instructor. You can always find immediate feedback for your coursework, and get advice from other students.

6. Live Student Support 24/7

As an online student, you study when you have time. So we have a hotline you can call anytime to get technical help. Every student also has a Student Services Coordinator that will provide you with guidance and support throughout the life of your program.

7. Flexible Classes

Some online schools rush you through a 4-week class. We’ve found this causes unneeded strain and stress on students. It also doesn’t provide a good learning environment. Our classes are exactly the same as our ground campus version. You have the same amount of time to complete your work as if you were in the classroom—except you study when and where you want.

8. Career Placement Services

We provide all our students with career placement services. We want you to get career support you need when finding a job. Our Career Services representatives can help you with your resume, interviewing skills, and finding a job in your area. And since we are part of a nationwide network of schools, employers from all over know the quality of our graduates. Our national presence can give you an edge in finding a job.

9. Accelerated Learning

Students may be able to transfer credits from previous college courses so that they can complete the program in a faster timeframe. Please contact the Transfer Center at (877) 727-0058, or email transfercenter@cci.edu for assistance.

10. Diverse Community

Everest has a diverse group of online students. Some students love spending time interacting with the instructor or other students through online discussion threads or chat rooms. Other students prefer to just log on and get their assignments. You can decide how active you want to be in each class. It’s up to you.
