LOS ANGELES, Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Through http://usdegreeonline.wlac.edu , West Los Angeles College ("West"), located in Los Angeles, California, offers students around the world an opportunity to earn an American degree online without ever leaving home. The program is convenient, fully accredited, and has one of the lowest tuitions available in the U.S. from a real, progressive college. Thousands of students select West each year for its high education value and low cost tuition. Now, that value is available in an international online degree.

Students can earn a U.S. Business Administration or Liberal Arts Degree. West Los Angeles College is part of a prestigious college family which includes Universities of California (UCLA, UC Berkeley etc.), California State Universities and other California Community Colleges. All online classes and degrees can be transferred easily to these colleges and many other U.S. universities.

Students can join our Twitter (http://twitter.com/studyatwlac ) or Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Culver-City-CA/West-Los-Angeles-College-International-Online-Studies/124931538269 ) pages to compete for an easy scholarship for free text books to be used in their online classes for this fall's 2009 semester.

"Our college is a real, accredited U.S. college where students can trust that their online degree will be a very valuable part of their future when they advance to a university or career," says Judy Chow, WLAC's Director of International Student Programs. "Students have come to our college from all over the world to complete the first two years of their Bachelor's degrees at a tremendous cost savings before transferring to a university. They also earn their Associate degrees which can qualify them for gainful employment in a number of industries. In this economic environment, our students say they feel secure in that we are a real, physical college ... not just online, and our esteemed professors care about results."

"West is also going a step further and looking to forge strong partnerships and ties with the countries from which their students come such as China, South Korea, Japan, India, Vietnam, Canada and many others. Over the next few months, we will be reaching out to education authorities, universities, and community based organizations to create strong learning opportunities for our students," Chow said.

Students interested in enrolling for fall semester must register by October 1st, 2009. Following semesters will be posted. Website: http://usdegreeonline.wlac.edu/
