Different admission methods
Distance education is an entrance examination organized by the school itself, while correspondence is usually admitted through the adult college entrance examination. This is one of the biggest differences between the two degrees.
Different subjects of running schools
There are relatively few qualified schools in distance education, while correspondence can be studied in almost all adult education colleges or continuing education colleges such as universities, colleges and vocational colleges. This is also one of the important differences between the two academic qualifications.
Graduation certificate number and certificate content are different.
The graduation certificate number and content of distance education and correspondence education are also different, so it is necessary to pay attention to the distinction.
Different teaching organization methods
According to the teaching plan, correspondence education focuses on face-to-face teaching in spare time every semester, while distance education does not focus on face-to-face teaching, so the study time is more free, which is suitable for busy on-the-job personnel. Correspondence education is more suitable for people who don't work overtime on weekends.
There are differences in social cognition
Although the development of distance education is very rapid, correspondence has a longer history and is more deeply rooted in people's hearts. In addition, the examination questions of distance education are independently put forward by various colleges and universities, and the difficulty can be adjusted. The entrance examination of correspondence is a national unified examination, which may make some people think that correspondence has higher gold content.
