The online education is very popular recently in the United States, and the kernel issue is the tuition problem in the Higher Education. Actually, compared with the traditional education, the required total courses are 100 credits for a bachelor degree, and the online education just has to spend 5 ~ 10% tuition completing it. According to the present prize, the student must pay USD 50 (Lewin & J. Markoff, 2013) to take a credit, and a bachelor degree needs USD 5,000. In such kind of situation, a high school graduate just needs to earn two months for the whole bachelor tuitions of online courses, but, except the bachelor program, the required essentials of a bachelor degree also have the internships, experiments, bachelor essay, …, and so on. However, the bachelor program can take them by the online system, and the examinations can be held on Saturday or Sunday at the University.
According to the educational law, any course should define the general failure ratio and makeup failure ratio, and the educational rules can establish the suitable mechanisms to spur the undergraduates as far as possible. The requirements of internships and experiments are based on the quantity limitations of software and hardware, and the bachelor essays are limited by the number of supervisors to restrict within the own educational resources. In other words, any university has to limit the number of undergraduates, and the present entrance methods may be remained in the online system. Besides, the higher education does not focus on the internships and experiments, and, compared with the general undergraduates, the online undergraduates may delete them as the required courses.
In any case, the bachelor essay is still the required essential to award a bachelor degree, except that graduate who owns the course credits is not awarded a bachelor degree, or the online system must restrict within the number of undergraduates. However, the viewpoint may let the undergraduate be not limited by any department at the University, and he just needs to take the professional courses to acquire the required professional knowledge. On the other hand, the online undergraduates may request the University cannot establish the failure ratio, and they adopt the course credits without any degree to apply for their positions as the different mode. Hence, the University may request them to limit the purposes of these course credits, and the online undergraduates cannot adopt the course credits as the offset credits to read for any degree. Actually, the degree and credit are almost no difference, and a degree must make some required essentials.
