About Us:
Breyer State University (BSU) has affiliated with HorseCoursesOnline, the worldwide leading provider of online equine study curriculum for colleges and universities. Success Is Easy, an equine information publishing company, was established in 1978, developing a special education division, Equine Studies Institute and HorseCoursesOnline. HorseCoursesOnline subsequently pioneered distance learning for equine studies, providing courses for 7 college programs. The BSU Bachelor of Science in Equine Studies degree program was initiated in May 2004 and now has more than 600 active students worldwide, representing 17 countries.

With college tuition rising at an alarming rate, Breyer State University's online accredited Bachelor of Science in Equine Studies degree remains the most affordable program available.  Being online, BSU can make the best of the best instructors available on a one-on-one basis, yet not have the high costs of having faculty on site and only working only at specific time periods.  Allowing students to enroll in one course at a time creates an easy to manage payment plan.  Students can take as long as they want to finish a course and will never be "locked out."    Being able to control your finances without going into debt, and being able to work with your horse at home, makes the BSU an outstanding education value.

One-on-One Contact with Instructors:
Students are in one-on-one contact with their instructors for questions and assistance by e-mail. Students may take one course at a time or several. Students receive links to online lessons by e-mail and may work at their own pace and when convenient; students may be asked to visit local equine facilities, but never have to travel for tests or lessons.
