Global College
(Refer to Global College)
Global College presents a curriculum through which a student may earn an Associate's Degree or Bachelor's Degree by attending classes at times compatible with full-time employment. Degrees offered include an Associate of Arts in General Studies, an Associate of Science in Applied Health Services, an Associate of Arts or a Bachelor of Arts in Professional Psychology, and an Associate of Science or a Bachelor of Science in Business Studies. Available concentrations in Professional Psychology are: Criminal Justice, Organizational Psychology and Public Health. In the Bachelor of Science in Business Studies Degree, concentrations include: Entrepreneurship, Industrial & Organizational Psychology, Information Security, Management, Management Information Systems, Marketing, and Public Health Administration. Thirty semester hours of credit may be earned in each academic year (six hours in each eight-week term), making it possible for a student to complete all degree requirements in fewer than five years. Academic work transferred from other colleges will shorten this time proportionally.
The Global College academic year is divided into four eight-week accelerated terms, which are bridged into two semesters. In addition, there is one eight-week session in the summer. Classes meet primarily in one of two accessible formats: either fully online or in a flex/hybrid-online model. Final exams are either incorporated into the course or scheduled following the last classroom meeting. To be considered full time in the Professional Studies program, a student must enroll for 12 hours each semester.
Although the Global College is designed for degree-seeking students, it makes provisions for students wanting to take prerequisites toward a MBA degree, the CPA exam, or courses of special interest.
