Online education has become the ultimate way for furthering education without the worry of being isolated by the pandemic or delay. That’s why the Edward Gersich Distance Education Scholarship is not only fitting for those needing a $1,000 advancement towards higher learning. But Bemidji State University showcases their online/distance learning to a few department-based rewards that become only useable to undergraduate scholars. You can complete your Bachelor’s degree in their distance learning program. All that the university asks is that you have 24 college credits to transfer over to begin your 3rd year of schooling. If you do not have these credits, you are required to attend classes on campus. Here is a list of fields that are accepted to BSU: Accounting, Applied Engineering, Applied Management, Criminal Justice, Business Administration, Marketing Communication, Project Management, Psychology, and Sociology. 

Bemidji State University advocates for creative, hardworking students who feel or are currently involved in protecting and educating themselves about the environment. This university serves around 5,100 students per year, while this college has been named as the greenest college campus’ in America by The Princeton Review.
