School of Adult and Professional Education
Accelerated Weekend College
Rationale and Degrees Offered

Accelerated Weekend College aims to provide adult students with an opportunity for personal and career development. Student achievement is fostered in an environment that encourages self–directed learning supported by a structure of relationships and ongoing advisement. This new option provides a balance between a traditional classroom experience, rich in interactive learning techniques, with an Independent Learning Component, adapted to the goals of each student. These Independent Learning Components insure that the accelerated courses are equivalent to traditional courses, yet tailored to the individual needs of the adult learner.

Applicants wishing to pursue a degree or certificate program in the Accelerated Weekend College must satisfy the admission requirements for the degree or certificate program, as well as possess the maturity and background to undertake this challenging academic format. Students may supplement their trimester credit with credit by examination, video course credit, or by enrolling in additional evening courses.
