Kaplan Named to Newsweek’s America's Top Online Learning Schools 2025 List
Fort Lauderdale, FL (November 26, 2024) — Kaplan, a leading global educational services provider, has been recognized as one of America's Top Online Learning Schools of 2025 by Newsweek and data research firm Statistas. This prestigious ranking is based on an independent survey of 10,000 U.S. residents who have used online learning services to pursue academic degrees or acquire new skills for their jobs or personal interests.
Kaplan’s inclusion on this list underscores its longstanding commitment to providing high-quality, flexible, and innovative online learning experiences. As a pioneer in global online education, Kaplan has been delivering best-in-class digital learning programs for decades, including the establishment of the first wholly online law school in 1998. As an education and career advancement partner to individuals, as well as institutions of higher learning and corporate partners, Kaplan offers a comprehensive suite of onsite and online programs, including:
Test preparation: Kaplan provides industry-leading preparation for more than 100 standardized tests, including admissions exams like the SAT®, ACT®, GRE®, GMAT®, LSAT®, and MCAT®, through a robust menu of onsite, live online, and on-demand online offerings.
Language training: Kaplan also offers immersive online language training in English, French and German, in addition to a global network of schools.
Degree programs: Kaplan delivers online or onsite degree programs focused on academic studies and career advancement at the following institutions: Kaplan Open Learning - University of Essex (UK); Kaplan Open Learning - University of Liverpool (UK); Dublin Business School (Ireland); Kaplan Business School (Australia); Kaplan Singapore (Singapore) in partnership with 10 university partners.
Additionally, Kaplan Real Estate Education received special recognition for its online programs, which includes its recently launched Buyer Agency Professional (BAP) designation to help buyer agents succeed as they face a drastically different way to earn their commission. It also offers online courses for aspiring professionals to obtain their real estate license.
Gregory Marino, CEO, Kaplan North America, said:
“We're incredibly proud to be named to America’s Top Online Learning Schools 2025 list, a testament to Kaplan’s longtime commitment to innovation. Our online programs are crafted by world-class technologists and academics who are dedicated to helping students succeed. As demand for online learning continues to grow, we’ll keep innovating and expanding our offerings to meet students where they are, empowering them to reach their educational and career goals. This recognition reinforces our mission to provide high-quality, flexible learning solutions that allow students to decide what options best fit their learning needs.”
Earlier this year, Fast Company named Kaplan’s All Access License as a winner in its 2024 World Changing Ideas Awards. Kaplan’s All Access License, launched in 2022, enables colleges and universities to help their students prepare for a variety of high-stakes admissions and licensing exams that they need to score well on to reach their professional goals — with zero out-of-pocket costs for students. All students who take advantage of this offering learn in Kaplan’s virtual classrooms. Additionally, Inc. named Kaplan as a winner in its third annual Power Partner Awards, which honors B2B organizations across the United States that have proven track records of helping businesses grow.
