The price of higher education at one university in the U.S. just crossed the $100,000 per year mark — yes, per year — to earn a bachelor’s degree. That’s simply insane.
Meanwhile, students at hashtag#UoPeople pay just $1,400 per year — and that includes all course materials. So here’s the question: Why pay $100,000 when you can get an accredited degree from an online American university for a fraction of the cost?
An independent economic impact report shows UoPeople’s ROI is 30x higher than the national average. That’s $250 back for every $1 invested — vs $8.20 elsewhere.
The math is simple: $100K or $1,400? Debt or freedom? UoPeople provides students with the opportunity to earn a quality college degree without having to break the bank to pay for it.
