University of Florida:
The University of Florida offers various degrees, certificates, and courses. UFL offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees via distance learning. These degree programs require formal admission to the University of Florida. Applicants must meet UF's general admission requirements as well as those specified by the individual degree program. Certificates & Certification Training: Our Certificates do not necessarily require formal admission (although a department or college can make that a requirement). However permission from the department or faculty teaching the certificate courses is required. Our other distance include college and high school credit courses as well as non-credit professional and personal development courses. They may be web-based, or delivered by other technologies, such as print-based (correspondence) materials.

Characteristics of Distance Education:Results from several studies indicate that the distance education students have these characteristics:
- Three-quarters are working full or part-time.
- Three-quarters are working towards a degree.
- Two-thirds are female.
- More than half are married with dependents.
- Half are 35 years old or older.
- Twenty percent are new students.
The distance education student, in general, has more freedom and more responsibility for his or her own instruction. The instructor becomes more of a "guide on the side" than a "sage on the stage." Studies indicate that when students are active participants in the learning process, they are likely to perform better and remember more. The multimedia approach employed by many forms of distance education addresses a wider range of learning styles among students than do most forms of traditional classroom instruction.
