0Saint Leo honored in 4 categories of ‘2023 U.S. News & World Report’s Best Online Programs’
Saint Leo University, which was one of the early leaders in online education, earned honors in four categories for providing the best online bachelor’s and master’s programs in the United States, according to the 2023 U.S. News & World Report’s Best Online Programs edition, which was released January 24.
The university received honors in the Best Online Bachelor’s Programs in Psychology (ranked 36th); Best Online Bachelor’s Programs (124th); Best Online Bachelor’s Programs for Veterans (ranked 75th); and Best Online Bachelor’s Programs in Business (127th) categories.
“Saint Leo is celebrating 25 years of offering online education so it’s particularly fitting that the university is being honored for providing outstanding online degrees,” said Dr. Edward Dadez, Saint Leo University president. “In 1998, the university took a risk and entered the online field. Now, through online classes, students can study anywhere and anytime that is convenient for them. It was an investment that paid off for the university and especially for its students.”
This year’s edition of U.S. News & World Report’s Best Online Programs evaluates more than 1,800 online bachelor’s and master’s degree programs.
“One of the most critical areas in which Saint Leo distinguishes itself among other higher education institutions is its focus on connecting with students,” said Dadez, the university president. “Students who are connected and involved in their university tend to do better academically and complete their degrees, which are offered from the associate level to the doctorate at Saint Leo.”
