Jones International University Student Life
As an online school, JIU gives its students the flexibility of logging in any time they like, and as many or as few times each week as they find necessary to complete assignments within the time allotted. Each course is divided into weekly modules, and most classes average 10-15 hours per week at the undergraduate level or 15-20 hours per week at the graduate level. Not all of this time is spent online; the estimate also includes the time it takes to complete reading assignments, do research, and work on the weekly project.
