A Bachelor’s degree in as few as three years

An Associate’s degree in just 16 months

Both a Bachelor’s degree and an MBA in as little as four years

Some programs offer concentrated seven-week course options. Shorter certificate programs are available.

Be confident

Support services, such as tutoring, workshops, and the Center for Academic Success, are available on campus and online every step of the way.

Be in the place.
