Southwest Minnesota State University offers distance learning option

Southwest Minnesota State University is now offering a 2+2 distance learning option for getting a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education. SMSU has established articulation agreements with nine community/technical colleges across Minnesota, and these agreements allow the associate degrees from those schools to transfer into SMSU and count toward the B.S. degree. The majority of the B.S. classes will be online, with perhaps some on-campus classes required at the local community/technical college. For more information, contact the T.E.A.C.H. MINNESOTA office or visit the SMSU distance learning link: www.smsu.edu/Academics/DistanceLearning/Index.cfm?Id=4544.
