Why Choose Criminal Justice Online
at Centralia College?

CENTRALIA COLLEGE HAS THE MOST AFFORDABLE ONLINE DEGREES

Centralia College's online degrees offer an affordable alternative to most private online colleges and universities. These other online institutions typically charge $300.00 - $500.00 per credit. At Centralia College, online tuition is less than $100.00 per quarter credit for Washington state residents.

Out-of-state students still pay less than $115.00 per quarter credit for our online instruction. This means our online students save at least $20,000.00 in tuition and fees by choosing Centralia College over other private online institutions. Refer to our current catalogs and quarterly schedules for detailed explanation of tuition and fees, which are included in the costs above.

CENTRALIA COLLEGE IS UNIQUE IN ONLINE INSTRUCTION

Centralia College is unique among other online schools. First and foremost, we occupy a traditional college campus. We enjoy a beautiful tree-lined mall, stone walkways, and several instruction buildings.

Washington Hall encapsulates 66,000 square feet of classrooms, lecture halls, computer labs, and a 500-seat performing arts theatre. In addition, we are currently building a new 70,000 square foot "state-of-the-art science center." Unlike almost every other online college or university, Centralia College will never be located in a strip mall, industrial park, or office building.

CUTTING EDGE CURRICULUM

As a Centralia College student, you will enjoy the most relevant and interactive online curriculum currently available. Our criminal justice program consistently leads the way in cutting-edge technology, academic innovation, and quality of instruction throughout the Pacific Northwest and the state of Washington.
