Focused on your career path?

Motivated to move ahead at a faster pace?

Ë®¹ûÅÉ has a new three-year degree program, backed with three-year guarantees in Biology, Chemistry, English, History, and Mathematics and plans to expand to more areas of study in the future.

How it Works

Faculty members created intensive academic plans with a three-year course schedule. Degree programs have not been modified or reduced in any way – just like four-year degree students, 123 credits are needed to graduate.

Instead, Ë®¹ûÅÉ thought progressively about how students can meet requirements at an accelerated pace. Students will take classes in the fall, spring and summer depending on the program and the number of credits students transfer to Ë®¹ûÅÉ.
