Strayer University Online makes it possible for students and working adults with busy schedules to earn their degrees entirely through online education. This enables students with time obligations and schedule restrictions to earn a degree while working around their busy lifestyles. Students who work full-time jobs, or students with children, can earn Strayer University degrees online while simultaneously meeting their other responsibilities. This enables adults to change careers or advance in their careers without quitting their jobs or performing parental gymnastics to attend regularly-scheduled classes.

Students at Strayer University Online learn in two formats: via synchronous classes, or via asynchronous classes. In synchronous classes, students and instructors meet online at the same, scheduled time every week. This simulates meeting in a regular classroom, except you can do it from the comfort of your own home. In a synchronous class, you'll hear live audio from the professor, supported by a live virtual blackboard where the professor can share notes. During a synchronous class, you can interact with your professor and classmates in real time, via text messaging.

In asynchronous classes, students participate on their own schedules. Students can attend classes 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, during an asynchronous format. In an asynchronous class, students access recorded audio lectures, video presentations, and supporting instructional materials via the website. Students can optionally participate in real-time chats, but these are generally not required, which enables students to complete their learning on whatever schedule is convenient for them.
