An online university that doesn't suck

Have you ever heard of capella university? It's usually spelled with capitalized letters. Does that help? Okay, good. Now, let's get started, class. (I'm going to use the false pretense that you are my class. Coolness!)

But Capella is some Capella. Founded in 1993, it is a completely accredited university online. That means they are legit. They offer graduate online degree programs in business, information tehcnology, education, human services, publich health, public safety, psychology, and bachelor's degree programs in business, information technology, and public safety. But the detailed educational system at Capella doesn't stop there. Within those areas, they have 104 graduate and undergraduate specializations. They also have 15 areas of certification. That's a pretty technologically advanced way to get a certificate, isn't it? I'm pretty amazed at how great of a school it sounds like. They currently serve almost 20,000 students from all 50 states and 56 different countries! (I'll let you know when they officially reach 20,000. Check back for live updates of that.) They are pursuing business growth. They want to grow, while helping you grow. They provide high-caliber academic excellence. They are radical...in the slang term way. (They don't teach a "Slang Terms 101" class.)

"Who owns them though?" asks the bitter conspiracy-theory guy in the back of the class? Well, sire, they are owned by Capella Education Company of course. Their headquarters are in Minneapolis. If you want to find out more, then you better start googlin' that ish...or click on the link above. They are awesome from what I hear...and I hear a lot of things--most of which come from actual people.
