About the Ranking
Each ranking on STEPS utilizes data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), which colleges and universities across the country self-report via surveys from the U.S. Department of Education. From there, data scientists analyzed the data and created a proprietary algorithm to rank each U.S. post-secondary institution and its online programs using 8 primary factors:
- Number of online programs in a given subject and/or degree level
- Number of online students at the college or university
- Availability of Academic Counseling
- Availability of Career Placement Services
- Tuition & fees
- % of students who receive institutional aid
- Median earnings of students ten years post-entry (from the College Scorecard)
- Institutional accreditation by an accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education
Also, to make sure each ranking honors the STEPS commitment to public service education, the following secondary factors were used:
- AmeriCorps Match participation
- Recognition as top Peace Corps school
At STEPS, we've done the best we can to generate the most useful rankings, program descriptions, and degree information possible. You can also use our filtering and sorting tools to visualize and narrow down the data however you see fit. And if you have any questions about this ranking, please don't hesitate to contact us directly.

About the Ranking
Each ranking on STEPS utilizes data from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS), which colleges and universities across the country self-report via surveys from the U.S. Department of Education. From there, data scientists analyzed the data and created a proprietary algorithm to rank each U.S. post-secondary institution and its online programs using 8 primary factors:
- Number of online programs in a given subject and/or degree level
- Number of online students at the college or university
- Availability of Academic Counseling
- Availability of Career Placement Services
- Tuition & fees
- % of students who receive institutional aid
- Median earnings of students ten years post-entry (from the College Scorecard)
- Institutional accreditation by an accrediting body recognized by the U.S. Department of Education
Also, to make sure each ranking honors the STEPS commitment to public service education, the following secondary factors were used:
- AmeriCorps Match participation
- Recognition as top Peace Corps school
At STEPS, we've done the best we can to generate the most useful rankings, program descriptions, and degree information possible. You can also use our filtering and sorting tools to visualize and narrow down the data however you see fit. And if you have any questions about this ranking, please don't hesitate to contact us directly.

Amarillo College serves students in Amarillo, Texas and the surrounding areas and provides more than a dozen fully online programs.

How Does an Online Degree in Education Work?
There’s a reason so many online degrees in education exist: they translate easily to distance learning formats. The vast majority of topics covered in these programs can be effectively discussed and learned through live and pre-recorded lectures, online forums and chat features, innovative assignments that harness educational technology, and papers that can be sent and graded through email. Many online degrees in education can be completed fully online with the exception of any student teaching and internship requirements. These tend to mostly exist at the bachelor’s level, meaning some associate, master’s, and doctoral programs may not require any in-person components.
When researching a prospective education degree online, you should consider several components. If you already have a busy professional and/or personal life, asynchronous vs. synchronous delivery could make a big difference. Asynchronous programs allow you to watch pre-recorded lectures and complete assignments at times that work best with your schedule, while synchronous degrees require you to log-in at specific times. It’s also worth considering whether you want a part-time, full-time, or accelerated program. Part-time usually serves working students best, while accelerated paths appeal to learners who want to gain their degree and begin working more quickly.
And don’t forget about student teaching. While there may be an online component to it, you’ll need to log hours in the classroom, too. Read our Student Teaching Survival Guide to learn more about your final step from degree to career.

Which Education or Teaching Degrees Can I Earn Online?
Education and teaching degrees exist both partially and fully online, making it possible for you to find a program that works with your life. These degrees can be found at every level as well, meaning you can go from an associate degree to a Ph.D. with minimal visits to campus. Keep reading to learn about the variety of programs available.
Online early childhood education degrees appeal to students who want to use their teaching skills to help the youngest students take their first steps in the world of education. Most programs qualify graduates to work with Pre-K learners in both academic and child care settings. These programs exist at the associate through doctoral levels and cater to a variety of professional goals. You can expect to learn about developmental changes from birth through eight years old, educational pedagogy, and creating fun learning environments.
Elementary education programs online help students fulfill their goals of working with children enrolled in Kindergarten through middle school. These programs give you an understanding of developmentally-appropriate teaching practices, effective lesson planning tools, strategies for teaching students of differing ability levels, and an awareness of how education policy plays into educational goals and outcomes. You must seek licensure and certification to teach after completing this program.
Students who enroll in online secondary education degree programs want to work with high school students to prepare them for college and professional endeavors. Programs focused on this area of education provide you with the subject knowledge needed to teach standard and specialized topics and the skills required to work with students of diverse backgrounds and abilities. You must seek licensure and grade level certification after graduating to qualify for teaching roles.
Special education online degrees appeal to students who want to work with exceptional learners to meet their full potential. In addition to covering subject area materials, you’ll also develop specialized skills in understanding various types of learning disabilities and creating lesson plans that cater to individual needs. Both public and private schools providing campus-based and distance learning programs offer these degrees. You’ll need to meet licensure and certification requirements to teach with this qualification.
Pursuing a physical education degree online is a great option if you want to teach students of all grade levels how to live healthy and active lives.

You’ll gain skills in curriculum development, equipment maintenance, teaching appropriate sports movements, and directing athletic programs.
Online Certificate in Education & Teaching
Certificates in education and teaching exist for undergraduate and graduate students alike, though learning outcomes tend to vary. An undergraduate certificate in education qualifies you for support roles as a teaching aide or tutor, while a graduate certificate usually focuses on building specialized skills in a particular specialty area of the discipline. The undergraduate path can be a great option if you want to get a taste for education before committing to a full degree, while the graduate certificate can help boost employability, and, possibly, salary potential.
Online Associate Degree in Education
Completing an online associate degree in education won’t qualify you to work as a licensed teacher, but it still offers several tangible benefits. These programs, which usually require two years of full-time study, allow you to get a sense of what a career in education may entail before jumping fully into a bachelor’s program. If you attend an accredited community college or vocational school, these credits typically transfer to a baccalaureate degree if you decide to progress your studies after graduating. Associate degrees qualify you for support roles as a teaching assistant, preschool teacher, or child care worker.
Coursework tends to introduce foundational topics such as trends in education, use of technology in teaching, subject area education fundamentals, and theories of childhood development. These degrees also include some general education courses, which, again, count towards a bachelor’s degree.
Online Bachelor’s Degree in Education
If hoping to work as a licensed teacher, you’ll need at minimum a bachelor’s degree in education. Whether you want to teach students just starting out in kindergarten or those entering high school, education programs exist to give you the subject area knowledge and educational skills needed to lead classrooms. These degrees also prepare you for jobs outside the classroom, including positions as camp directors, daycare administrators, educational program managers, and textbook authors.
Students typically pick their grade level (e.g., early education, elementary education, secondary education) to build skills in content delivery before moving into topics around classroom management techniques, instructional approaches, educational technology, classroom assessments, and working with exceptional and gifted learners. You must also participate in a semester-long student teaching experience to build classroom skills. These programs typically require four years of full-time study or two years after completing an associate degree.
While an online master’s degree in education likely won’t qualify you for a university position, it can help advance your career and earn a higher salary. If wanting to work as a school counselor, instructional coordinator, librarian, or principal, you’ll need at minimum a master’s degree. These programs build skills in leadership, implementation of qualitative and quantitative research, curriculum design and assessment, and providing counseling to students from diverse backgrounds.
These programs exist for individuals who want to work in the highest tiers of education as a practitioner. Degrees emphasize training in areas of program administration, leading organizational change, transformational leadership, and using cutting-edge research to inform new ways of progressing the field forward. Rather than focusing on skills-building in conducting research, these programs teach students how to implement findings in innovative ways. They usually require three years of full-time study or five years of part-time study.
Ph.D. programs in education exist for students who want to build advanced skills in areas of research, policy development and implementation, curricular assessment and evaluation, and postsecondary teaching. These degrees tend to be more theoretical in nature than EdD pathways and give you the skills needed to contribute unique research, findings, and best practices to the discipline. They also provide the skills you need to lead college-level classes that prepare the next generation of educators.
The Online Bachelor’s in Education: Admissions Requirements

Admission requirements for online bachelor’s in education programs depend entirely on the university to which you plan to apply. Some programs exist as full, four-year programs while others are designed to serve learners who already completed an associate degree and need a degree completion program. Those falling into the latter category typically set general education requirements that must be met before a letter of admission is extended.
In addition to general university admission mandates, some education departments also set degree-specific requirements, including minimum GPAs, completion of certain prerequisites, clearance of a background check (required to participate in student teaching experiences), and a passing score on the PRAXIS core examination. General admission requirements typically include official transcripts from any high school or university previously attended, two to three letters of recommendation, a statement of purpose, answers to any essay questions posed, a completed application and payment of fees, and SAT/ACT scores.
What’s the Cost of an Online Bachelor’s in Education?
Costs for online bachelor’s in education programs vary significantly based on the type of institution you attend. Public schools offering in-state tuition tend to provide the best value for money, while private institutions usually charge significantly more. Check out the table below to get a sense of what to expect, but remember these figures do not include any additional fees.
