Mission Statement

The Office of Distance and Extended Learning expands access to academic credit learning experiences and lifelong learning opportunities for students through distance learning, extended studies, and continuing education.

Core Values

The Office of Distance and Extended Learning achieves its mission through strong collaboration among our team and other departments on campus; mutual respect for faculty, staff, and students; effective and accurate communication; and conscientious action in our daily operations. 

Distance Learning Programs

At Texas State, online learning reflects our passion for teaching and learning, the courage and discipline to prioritize, a deep commitment to core values, and the allocation of resources where we can deliver superior performance and distinctive impact. Texas State offers both undergraduate and graduate degrees via online learning, all of which are developed and taught by our university faculty. These degree programs require formal admission to the university, and applicants must meet Texas State's general admission requirements, as well as those specified by the individual degree program.  A list of those distance learning programs, see the graduate and undergraduate programs list at https://www.distancelearning.txstate.edu/students/program-offerings.html

Evening and weekend classes are offered on the San Marcos Campus, at various off-campus locations, and at the Round Rock Campus. Many of these classes are enhanced through the use of the Internet, email, video, two-way interactive TV, and broadcast. The Catsweb Class Schedule provides a listing of all courses scheduled for each semester.
