At the institutions that you have previously attended, you worked hard to complete the courses in your program of study.  We will do our best to match credits that you earned previously with UWRF requirements.  Please contact the program director for additional information on how credits may transfer into an “Option B” minor if they are not able to transfer into the general education or business administration major requirements.

We understand that you want to move through your degree program at a pace that is comfortable for you and your busy schedule.  The length of time that it will take to complete your degree will depend on the number of courses that you enroll in during a given term.  With many of the courses being scheduled in a convenient 8-week, one-evening-per-week format, you may be able to quickly move through your degree program, while still attending to your other important responsibilities.

Things sometimes happen during the course of our academic journey that we need to revisit and work through.  Contact the Adult Degree Completion Program Director for more information on beginning the journey back to degree completion.

Adult students bring many things to the classroom including experience, knowledge, and a passion to succeed.  You may find that at this time in your life you are even more prepared for college work than you were a few years ago.  Your experience counts and is valued.

Online courses allow people flexibility to take courses in a format that is convenient to them.  Online courses also allow people to access coursework if their life situation were to change (e.g., travel for work, relocation, other time related necessities).  Not all of the courses in the Business Administration Adult Degree Completion Program are online.  Most of the courses will be in a face-to-face format with online courses supplementing our program of study when applicable.  You and the program director will develop a plan that includes the format that best fits your needs.  The Business Administration program requirements cannot all be completed online.
