Program Description

Did you start college a while ago, earn a lot of credit hours but had to stop out before completing your degree? Has completing your original degree been an unattainable goal because the courses you need aren’t available online and you can’t attend in-person classes due to your job or where you live?

Our Bachelor of University Studies program might be the solution for you to complete a general bachelor’s degree.  For students who meet the eligibility requirements, this degree maximizes the way we can use all of the previous courses you’ve taken into our very flexible general education core curriculum as well as one, two or three emphasis areas.  Half of the degree consists of elective courses, which is another way we can use a lot of those courses you have taken in the past that might not fit into a major, a minor, or an emphasis.
