been ranked as one of the nation\u2019s best colleges for online master\u2019s programs in mathematics. Just six percent of regionally accredited postsecondary institutions earned a ranking position.\u00a0<\/em><\/p><p>Nicholls State University has been recognized as one of the best schools for online learning at the master\u2019s level by OnlineMastersDegrees.org (OMD). Nicholls\u2019s mathematics programs earned top honors for overall quality, affordability and commitment to student success.\u00a0<\/p><p>See where Nicholls ranked below:\u00a0<br \/><strong>Best Online Master&#8217;s Degrees in Mathematics \u2013 <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.onlinemastersdegrees.org\/best-programs\/mathematics\/\"><strong>https:\/\/www.onlinemastersdegrees.org\/best-programs\/mathematics\/<\/strong><\/a><\/p><p>&#8220;This year, we focused on the schools making it easier for students to compete in today\u2019s increasingly difficult job market,\u201d said Kyle Darland, co-founder of OMD. \u201cEach ranked school offers a fully or partially online master\u2019s program in mathematics at a time when earning a master\u2019s has become a minimum barrier to entry for many.\u201d<\/p><p>Darland is referencing a recent survey from CareerBuilder, which found that \u201cthirty-three percent of employers are hiring workers with master\u2019s degrees for positions that had been primarily held by those with four-year degrees.\u201d These employers cited an evolution of the skills needed to perform the jobs as the cause of the shift, and an increase in work quality, productivity and employee retention as the result.<\/p><p>\u201cProviding students with opportunities to get a master\u2019s online is only part of our rankings,\u201d said Darland. \u201cTop-ranked schools also had competitive tuition rates and\/or scholarships to help drive costs down. And with grocery, gas and other expenses on everyone\u2019s mind right now, an affordable master\u2019s is key.\u201d<\/p><p>OnlineMastersDegrees.org analyzed more than 7,700 accredited universities by using data pulled from the schools themselves and from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS). After the data was compiled, OMD\u2019s data science team then applied a proprietary algorithm to rank all qualifying schools for each of the different master\u2019s degrees specialties. Primary data points include:<\/p><ul><li>Academic counseling services<\/li><li>Career placement services<\/li><li>Student\/faculty ratio<\/li><li>Tuition<\/li><li>Percent of students receiving school-based aid<\/li><li>Amount of school-based aid per student<\/li><\/ul><p>To be eligible for ranking, a university must hold active regional accreditation and have at least one partially online master\u2019s program in the ranking subject. Just 8 percent of U.S. postsecondary institutions earned a ranking position.\u00a0<\/p><p>About OnlineMastersDegrees.org<\/p><p>OnlineMastersDegrees.org began in 2020 to support online learning at the master\u2019s level.

provided that such transfer credit shall be applicable to the degree program. Both resident and extension credits are thus acceptable. Transfer credits are subject to a five-year limitation. The student must formally petition his or her academic dean for acceptance of transfer graduate credit. Final authorization of transferred credit is made by the student\u2019s academic dean. Credit earned at another institution while under academic or non academic suspension will not be accepted by Nicholls for transfer.<\/p><h3>\u00a0<\/h3><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-4123\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-4123\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">What are the time limitations on courses already completed?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-4123\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"3\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-4123\"><p>Answer: It is expected that all requirements for the Master\u2019s degree (including transfer credits, if any) will be completed within six consecutive years. If requirements for a degree cannot be completed within the normal time period of six years, the student may petition for an extension of time. The petition must explain why the degree cannot be completed within the time schedule for completing the program. Final authorization will be considered only in unusual and justifiable circumstances. A course taken more than six years before completion of degree requirements may be used in a student?s degree program only if revalidated by the professor of record for the course, or one who currently teaches the course. In the event that neither is available, a certifying professor may be designated by the department head for that discipline. Revalidation must be certified in writing after an examination or other work required by the certifying professor. Only courses currently contained in the University Bulletin may be revalidated.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-toggle-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-4124\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-4124\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon elementor-toggle-icon-left\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened\"><i class=\"elementor-toggle-icon-opened fas fa-caret-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-toggle-title\" tabindex=\"0\">What are my career opportunities?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-4124\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-4124\"><p>Answer:<\/p><p><strong>In Education:<\/strong><br \/>College instructor<br \/>Community\/Technical college instructor<br \/>High school teacher<br \/>Curriculum and Training<br \/>Consulting<\/p><p><strong>In Business:<\/strong><br \/>Analyst<br \/>Test Development<br \/>Catalog Prospecting Manager<br \/>Finance<br \/>Actuary<br \/>Consulting<\/p><p><strong>Federal positions:<\/strong><br \/>NSA<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a018d3e elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a018d3e\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;shape_divider_top&quot;:&quot;opacity-tilt&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shape elementor-shape-top\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-negative=\"false\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 2600 131.1\" preserveAspectRatio=\"none\">\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" d=\"M0 0L2600 0 2600 69.1 0 0z\"\/>\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" style=\"opacity:0.5\" d=\"M0 0L2600 0 2600 69.1 0 69.1z\"\/>\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" style=\"opacity:0.25\" d=\"M2600 0L0 0 0 130.1 2600 69.1z\"\/>\n<\/svg>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7d63e14\" data-id=\"7d63e14\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0f4df94\" data-id=\"0f4df94\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5f79a46 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5f79a46\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><em>\u201cThe entire program\u2019s structure is particularly well designed, from the curriculum to the nature of the client\/students.
