Flexible and accessible courses offered online or on-campus

No matter where you are in your learning journey, our credit studies offer flexible options to move forward. Explore degrees, certificates, and pathways, then choose between self-paced online open access courses and term based courses to match your timeline and learning style.

Credit programs

Undergraduate degrees and certificates allow you to specialize in a specific area. You can apply your certificate to a degree program, add a specialty to your current studies, or build professional skills to advance your career.

You may complete your certificate partially or completely online, depending on your chosen certificate. Please consult the admission requirements for each certificate to determine if you need to be enrolled in a degree program to apply.
