Undergraduate Application Checklist

Submitting an application is the first step toward achieving your personal and professional goal of earning a campus-based or online bachelor's degree. Students with prior college credit, military credit, professional licenses or certificates, or several years of work experience may be able to translate this experience directly into college credit.

An enrollment counselor will discuss with you how to earn prior learning credit, provide valuable information regarding financial aid and tuition assistance, recommend programs and classes, and help you get started with the application process.
