CAMPBELLSVILLE, Ky. – Campbellsville University’s education and business online graduate programs have been ranked 70th and 79th respectively in the nation in a report released today by U.S. News & World Report.

In the online education rankings, Campbellsville University and another Kentucky institution are the only two named in the top 100 with three other Kentucky institutions ranked.

For the 2014 edition of the Best Online Graduate Education Programs rankings, U.S. News incorporated program ratings concerning student engagement, student services and technology, faculty credentials and training, admissions selectivity and peer reputation.

“CU online tries to couple the strong academic background of our faculty with the latest in distance education technologies and the result is an academic program that we are proud to offer,” he said.

Frazier said the ranking is a “direct reflection on the tireless efforts of our faculty who make their classrooms academically rigorous but flexible to meet the needs of the 21st century learners.”
