UTS offers a limited number of courses through distance learning. Distance learning courses are designed for self-motivated adult learners whose mission or career respon­sibilities prevent them from taking courses on campus. Students may join a cohort that is working through the course assignments together on the Internet. Or they may study at their own pace, com­pleting assignments and corresponding with the instructor via e-mail, fax or letter.

Matriculated students in a degree pro­gram may take up to 25 percent of their credits by distance learning.

Students may register for distance learning courses at the main campus and the Extension Center on Regis­tration days, or by contacting the Registrar for registration materials. Tuition and fees must be paid in full before materials are sent out. Distance learning courses have a one-year time limit from the last day of registration for the term in which the student registers, or July 1 if in summer. At the end of this one-year period, the student may apply for a three-month extension (fee applied).

Students may change from a registered and paid distance-learning course to an on-campus course by paying a conversion fee.

Students may not take distance learning classes in effect prior to Fall 2006 to fulfill core program requirements.
