Eastern Michigan University has been recognized among the top 250 universities in the United States for its online degree programs, as reported by Newsweek. This recognition reflects the growing demand for online education options, which EMU addresses by offering virtual courses for both undergraduate and graduate students.

The rankings from Newsweek are based on a survey involving over 10,000 individuals who have taken online courses to earn academic degrees. The criteria for ranking include organization, support, price, reputation, success, recommendation, and overall satisfaction. Institutions must achieve an above-average total score to be acknowledged.

Eastern Michigan University's online programs are designed to provide flexibility for students seeking quality education remotely. Students enrolled in fully online programs benefit from paying in-state tuition and fees regardless of their location. EMU offers more than 40 undergraduate and graduate programs across various fields such as business, education, healthcare, and technology.

This accolade follows a previous recognition from OnlineMastersDegree.org, which ranked EMU among the top nine universities for pursuing a master's degree online in 2024. Programs highlighted include psychology, dietetics, engineering management, and early childhood education.
