Low-residency program

A low-residency program is a type of higher education program that doesn't require you to live on a college campus or be present on campus every day. Instead, you can participate in classes, activities, and meet with professors (your teachers) remotely over the internet, or in person a few times each year. This type of program gives you more freedom and flexibility than traditional programs, so you can keep working and taking care of your life while still gaining an education.
