Texas A&M University defines distance education courses as a course in which the majority of the instruction (interaction between students and instructors and among students) occurs when students and instructors are not in the same physical setting.
Students who are not enrolled in an approved distance education program cannot take more than 50% of their required courses online. Consult with your academic advisor for more information.
