Like many Americans, OnlineDegree.com Founder and CEO Grant Aldrich graduated from college with his own “overwhelming” amount of debt. After nearly 15 years working with startups, he decided to help build a path to education that wouldn’t be such an expensive burden to others.
“There are a lot of things that can distract someone from pursuing a degree,” notes Aldrich. “The cost is a big one and that’s the primary reason I created OnlineDegree.com. But, the nice thing about online education as a whole is that it can be self-paced, making room for students who need to work, or want to spend time with family. Going to college should be a path to something better rather than a financial drain and time investment that takes away from other important experiences.”
“Course credits earned through Ashworth College courses on the platform are guaranteed to transfer to select Ashworth College Associate Degree and Bachelor’s Degree programs,” notes Christine Jax, chief academic officer at Ashworth College. “There is no catch when it comes time to officially move on to a college for second-year studies, making it a seamless transition for students.”
