Corrections Bachelor's Degrees

Jails, prisons, probation, parole and community corrections: supervision, rehabilitation and administration. Corrections programs study the correctional system; hiring requirements for correctional officers are set by each agency. Programs appear here only when official curriculum evidence supports the subject: a named concentration or track, or the degree's own required core — never a topic covered in one or two courses.

School or program name

Online with no mandatory campus visits

Only online programs whose official page states that no campus visit or residency is required.

Degree

Exact degree

Dedicated degree or concentration

A concentration keeps its real degree, e.g. BS in Psychology — Forensic Psychology Concentration.

Forensic type

A criminal justice degree with forensic courses is not a laboratory forensic science degree.

Associate track

From the college’s own wording. No applied degree is assumed to transfer.

Institution type

Entry route (prior qualification)

First-year entry needs no prior college credit; completion and transfer pathways require prior credits or an associate degree.

Location

State

City (optional)

Where the school (or delivering campus) is. For online programs this is not where you must live.

Format & attendance

Delivery

Class schedule (online)

Study intensity

Internship

Laboratory component required

Programs whose official page states a required laboratory component.

Start term

Published duration

Conditional minimums (“as few as…”) do not count as the program length.

Accreditation

FEPAC-accredited program (verified)

This exact program appears in FEPAC's accredited-program database. FEPAC covers forensic science programs only; its absence says nothing about other programs.

Institutional accreditor

Cost, funding & deadlines

Published tuition

Matches only programs that publish tuition on that basis. Per-credit, per-year and whole-program figures are never compared.

Verified scholarships or funding

Scholarships, assistantships or service scholarships published officially. Loans do not count; service scholarships carry obligations.

Deadline

Order

Clear all

Unknown never counts as a match: a program without verified tuition is not “under $X”, and an unverified attendance policy is not “no campus visits”.
