eCampus is SPC’s distance learning program, offering fully accredited SPC courses via the Internet. Nearly 20,000 students throughout the US--and in other countries as well--enroll in eCampus courses each year.
Online courses offer a flexible, convenient format while maintaining the same standards of instructional quality that have made SPC a national leader. Whether online classes are a good fit for any given student depends largely on the student’s individual learning style, level of experience with computers, and familiarity with the Internet.
The eCampus Web site offers a variety of useful tools for helping prospective students evaluate the suitability of online classes. To access these tools, go to http://e.spcollege.edu and click on Is eCampus the Place for You?
ADMISSION, REGISTRATION , AND FINANCIAL AID
Admission requirements, registration procedures, and financial aid guidelines are the same for online courses as for on-campus classes.

Although the per-credit-hour fee for online courses is the same as for all others, there is an additional $20 lab fee per e-course.
