This is not the case at Globe University-Online. Students have access to support and assistance at the same level enjoyed by students at our 12 locations in the upper Midwest. Online learners have help from a well-staffed help desk, our online librarians, and from instructors who keep office hours and respond to questions. Students engage in discussion with teachers and classmates via e-mail, chat and IM. Because of this support system, our online students are not alone and have the assistance they need to be successful.
