Transfer and Degree Completion Programs

The degree completion program offers in-classroom, hybrid, and fully-online courses to provide greater flexibility for the nontraditional student. It offers several programs of study: accounting, business, human services, interdisciplinary, interdisciplinary degree toward education, nursing, the hybrid RN to BS in nursing, and psychology. By participating fully in this flexible program, a student may earn up to 48 credits per year. The prerequisite for students in the degree completion program who wish to take ENG 1010 (College Writing) at Mount Saint Mary College is to be determined by the Director of Admissions.

The academic year is divided into shorter sessions, with courses offered Monday/Wednesday evenings, Tuesday/Thursday evenings, or Saturdays. The combination of hybrid courses and online learning with the Mount's personalized advisement and adaptable scheduling allows more adults to obtain a bachelor's degree in the shortest time period. Through individualized counseling, students are encouraged to establish a realistic educational plan that suits their long-term goals, while fulfilling family and work responsibilities.
