Hoboken, NJ (PRWeb) June 18, 2007

As thousands of students graduate from college, thousands more are signing up — and many are signing up online. By next year, one in 10 college students will be enrolled in an online degree program, according to Eduventures, the leading research and consulting firm for the education industry. eLearners.com, a leading Web site that connects prospective students with online learning opportunities, is confirming a spike in the interest in online education by virtue of the number of prospective students visiting the site—which hit record highs. The most popular online degree programs people are seeking are:

Associate degree programs:

  • • Business Administration
  • • Criminal Justice
  • • Early Childhood Education
  • • Accounting

Bachelor's degree programs:

  • • Criminal Justice
  • • Business Administration
  • • Psychology
  • • Health Administration

Master's degree programs:

This data, which was collected from eLearners.com from April 1 to May 29, 2007, reveals online business degrees and online criminal justice degrees continue to be high demand areas of interest among prospective online students. This is not surprising when considering that more than 20 percent of college students get a degree in business, according to the U.S. Department of Education. And the supply is there to meet the demand.

eLearners.com offers more than 630 accredited online business and online MBA degrees from more than 70 accredited online colleges and universities. The same can be said for criminal justice with eLearners.com offering nearly 170 accredited online social sciences degrees, including criminal justice, homeland security, law and online psychology degree programs, just to name a few.
