Distance Education with a Local Feel

Welcome to Globe University-Online

When you’re trying to find an online college that is right for you, look beyond the degree programs. Learn what the school can do to help you be successful.
Our online programs are the result of a long history in career education. For more than 130 years, Globe University has focused on preparing students for successful careers. When we started our online programs in 2000, we knew that the distance learning environment would have unique challenges. We ensure that students are equipped to meet these challenges by providing them with resources that help them accomplish their educational goals.
The information on this Web site describes both the programs and the support services we offer online. All students and potential students should know that we believe in you and have a dedicated staff to help you succeed as you study online!
--Seth Tesdall, Director of Online Education

People may delay earning college degrees because their jobs or family situations prevent them from attending conventional colleges. At the same time, they are not convinced that online college really works. That’s where we come in. We’re Globe University. We run four campuses in Minnesota, Wisconsin and South Dakota. We operate jointly with Minnesota School of Business, which has seven campuses in Minnesota. Together we are part of  Globe Education Network, which includes even more schools in Minnesota and beyond. When you take an online class with us, you are very close to in-person, telephone and e-mail help when you need it.

We have been operating career colleges since the 1870s. Students who earn degrees and take classes online have the benefit of our history and experience in career education. Whether you complete a MBA or earn an associate degree in accounting at our online college, you will find that employers know and value the practical skills you’ve learned.

Dedicated to the success of our students

Our motto is Successful Futures Start Here. This means that we offer a strong support system for online learners with tutorials, extensive help desk hours and the ability to visit any of our campuses. We want your online college experience to be positive and prepare you for a rewarding career. We do what it takes to help you succeed, whether you are online or at one of the 12 locations of Globe University/Minnesota School of Business (GU/MSB).

Who studies online?

If you haven’t explored distance learning before, you may be surprised by the diversity of our students — who range from working professionals to single moms returning to college to international students seeking  American college degrees. And because of the way we structure distance education, you will have a chance to meet them in your virtual classroom.

Our accredited online college degree programs

Our online division offers accredited Master’s of Business Administration (MBA), the bachelor of science (BS) and the associate in applied science (AAS) degrees. Our programs also include two technical diploma programs. Students can earn these credentials in business, legal science, health science and information technology. These programs prepare students for rewarding careers.
