There are several avenues for experiencing online learning at Gallaudet University. Explore the options below to help you decide which one best meets your needs and interests.

For non-degree/professional development students

The Center for Continuing and Online Education (CCOE) offers a variety of PST courses (American Sign Language (ASL), Deaf Studies, Linguistics, Interpreting, Deaf Education, and among others) for Professional Studies and Training (PST) credit for non-degree-seeking students. PST credits are not applicable towards a degree program at Gallaudet. PST credits may be accepted at another institution or state depending on their specific credit transfer policies. All PST, PSG, and ASL courses are RID-CEU eligible, at a rate of 1.5 CEUs per credit.

For online degree and certificate programs

You have commitments-career, family, and community- but you can still fulfill your dream of getting a bachelor's or master's degree and do it around your busy lifestyle by taking online courses!
