Another option for correspondence learning is to look into state schools. Several states have schools offering online bachelor's and master's degrees. Also, individual universities and colleges may offer degrees that are completed fully online. For example, the state of Maryland offers online degree programs at University of Maryland University College (UMUC), which has several fields of study from which to choose. Another example of an online state school is Oregon State University (OSU)'s Extended Campus, or ECampus. OSU has bachelor's and master's degree programs that are taught entirely online.
