Online does not mean a program qualifies graduates for professional registration everywhere. Professional pathway status is recorded separately from delivery.

What “online” means for each program

Each listing states what is taught online and what is not: mandatory campus studios, residential workshops, in-person assessment, local placements, live attendance and time-zone requirements. Where a requirement is not published it is shown as not published, not as “none”.

Teaching is fully online. Read the details: assessment, placements and live sessions can still require presence.

33 programs

How results are ordered: alphabetically by institution, or by most recently checked when you choose that sort. There is no price ranking, because tuition in different currencies, fee categories and bases (per year, per credit, whole program) is not comparable. Adjacent subjects such as landscape architecture appear only when you choose a subject. A value we could not verify is shown as “not published”, never as “no”. Items marked Sponsored are paid placements; they never change accreditation information, verification or order. Online programs are not counted as physically located in a state or city, and an institution’s location does not tell you whether it enrols students from your country.
