Seminole State College has widened its online degree selection from three degrees to 13 for the spring 2022 semester. SSC’s first three 100% online degrees were launched in the fall 2021 semester. Those degrees were in Business, Criminal Justice and Liberal Studies. The SSC Online Degree Office started the semester with a goal of enrolling 30 students into those programs and by the end of the Fall semester, nearly 100 students were enrolled. Throughout the past 6 months, the office has received over 500 inquiries about programs and multiple requests for other online degrees. To meet those requests, Seminole State has launched an additional 10 programs for the Spring 2022 semester. Those programs are Business Operations (AAS), Psychology, Social Sciences, Computer Science, Child Development, Enterprise Development in Arts, Enterprise Development in Science, Applied Technology, LPN to RN and Early College Certificate.

“The program has drawn students from all five counties in the College’s service area, 13 additional counties in Oklahoma, as well as a student from Colorado. Currently, the highest enrollment is in our Liberal Studies degree, with the new LPN to RN program gaining a lot of momentum,” Director of Distance Education Melanie Rinehart said.

Spring courses are set to begin Monday, Jan. 10, 2022. Students and area residents can take advantage of open enrollment now through Saturday, Jan. 14. Perspective students seeking to learn remotely may contact the Online Degree Office at (405) 382-9577 or online@sscok.edu.
