Online Learning

At Arkansas State University Mid-South, we offer live, hybrid and online sections for many courses. Our high-quality online classes are designed by ASU Mid-South’s full-time faculty to provide flexible learning options that meet your needs and interests. This page is a guide to resources for students seeking to take courses, or complete their entire degree, through online instruction.

ASU Mid-South offers several degree programs for which all coursework can be completed entirely online. Currently, each course required for the Associate of Arts in General Education, Certificate of General Studies, Associate of Science in Business, Associate of Applied Science in Business Administration, Technical Certificate in Business, Certificate of Proficiency in Business, and Certification of Proficiency in Accounting is offered online at least one semester each academic year.

In addition, several requirements for degrees in Health Studies and other Allied Health programs can be taken online, including Anatomy and Physiology, Medical Terminology, and Introduction to Medical Professions. All General Education courses offered at ASU Mid-South are transferable to other institutions in Arkansas through the Arkansas Course Transfer System. ASU Mid-South students also regularly transfer credits earned at the college to public and private institutions across the United States. In some cases, the college has a formal 2+2 agreement that supports transfer into a specific four-year degree program.

You can find a full listing of courses for current and upcoming semesters by clicking on the appropriate course schedule in the sidebar of this page. Or, click here for a list that only includes our online course offerings for those semesters. ASU Mid-South offers a selection of online courses during the fall, spring and summer semesters as well as our eight-week short term sessions.

Canvas

Internet Essentials – Xfinity’s assisting Low Income Americans

Xfinity is looking for ways to help through our Internet Essentials program, the nation’s largest and most comprehensive broadband adoption program for low-income Americans. Effective March 16, we are putting in place two substantial program enhancements to help these families deal with this crisis.

  1. Xfinity will make it even easier for low-income families who live in a Comcast service area to sign up by offering new customers 60 days of complimentary Internet Essentials service, which is normally available to all qualified low-income households for $9.95/month.
  2. Xfinity is increasing Internet speeds for the Internet Essentials service from 15/2 Mbps to 25/3 Mbps for all new and existing customers, which will be the speed of the service going forward. In this way, we will ensure that Internet Essentials customers will be able to use their Internet service for all their increased needs as a result of this health crisis.

Xfinity wants to make it as fast and simple as possible to access this service:

  • To receive the increased Internet speeds, existing customers will not need to do anything.
  • For new customers, applicants can simply visit www.internetessentials.com. The accessible website also includes the option to video chat with customer service agents in American Sign Language. There are also two dedicated phone numbers 1-855-846-8376 for English and 1-855-765-6995 for Spanish.

If you have internet service, but cannot access your courses online, go to https://www.asumidsouth.edu/learning-management-portal/
