Degrees In Business Blog

Hispanic Business released a Top 10 Business Schools for Hispanic Students. This list, unfortunately, does not include online schools. While these schools have online class potential, a full-scale online degree program is better obtained through universities that have designed degree programs with the distance learner in mind.

One of the most prestigious online schools for business degrees like Business Administration and Criminal Justice is Saint Leo University.While Saint Leo University might not have been featured on the Top 10 Business Schools for Hispanic Students from Hispanic Business, it was featured on the Top 100 Degrees for Minorities at Diverse Issues in Higher Education, and the Top 100 Degrees for African-Americans. Saint Leo University’s student body is diverse and spread across both the Center for Online Learning–their distance learning programs–and traditional, campus-based programs that have been succeeding for ages.

Lists like the Top 100 Degrees for Minorities give prospective college students the ability to find universities that are proud in the cultural diversity they offer to nation’s educational community. Business students especially benefit from a “Melting Pot” college, with exposure to all kinds of ethnicities and cultures enhancing their understanding of business relations in a diverse world in the future.

Diverse Issues in Higher Education put together a Top 100 Degree Producers in 2007 list for both Minorities and African-Americans. The colleges listed are from all over the United States and all of them excel in minority and African-American enrollment. This diversity does not lean towards on cultural direction, but instead shows diversity for all cultures. One of the colleges that showed up consistently in both lists is Saint Leo University, which happens to not only be friendly to minorities, but is also a military-friendly school.

For active duty, reserve, and veterans interested in a business degree, the Degrees in Business Blog has a recommendation for a military-friendly college to meet your needs.

G.I. Jobs Magazine featured Saint Leo University, listing it as one of the Top Military Friendly Schools of 2010. This honor recognizes Saint Leo University as one of the top 15% of all colleges, universities, and trade-schools nationwide for active duty, reserve, and veterans. Saint Leo University was provided an award by G.I. Jobs to signify this achievement.
