程序
需求
Complete admission and program requirements are found in the University Catalog.
考虑一下:
- If you started a degree program but have not finished, the Bachelor of Elective Studies (BES) allows you to come back to college to complete 你的 degree in a timely manner.
- If you have earned a large number of credits in an area of study that no longer interests you or meets 你的 career objectives, you can select another course of study. The previous credits you earned still count towards 你的 BES
- If 你的 work demands basic knowledge in more than one subject area, the BES allows you to take higher level courses without completing the full requirements of a major.
- If 你的 personal interests encompass a wide variety of disciplines, the BES gives you a chance to explore several subject areas in depth without committing to one specialty.
- If you are choosing a new career path, the BES is 你的 选择程度.
These choices – and others – allow you to elect the courses, 日程安排, the time commitment and the level of intensity you choose to complete 你的 undergraduate degree.
