Mitchell College is now enrolling for the Professional Studies degree completion program to help adult learners meet their educational and career goals. Designed for students who have started—but not completed—a degree, this accelerated program offers both a 2-year (A.A.) and a 4-year (B.A.) degree. Two options are available for focused study in high-demand career tracks: (1) Business and (2) Health and Human Services.

Competitively priced and flexible, the program is 100% online and allows students to enroll throughout the year, with both full-time and part-time options. Spring I classes begin Jan. 16, 2024. Visit the website for other enrollment dates.

Students enrolled in this program can benefit from being with adult learners who are generally highly motivated and have life experience to draw from. Student success is supported by advisors, faculty, and staff who are experienced in working with adult learners and understand the challenges they face.

“The Professional Studies program is ideal for anyone looking to complete a degree they have already started, knowing that might give them an edge in advancing their career. In addition to knowledge gained through coursework, students will also develop transferable skills needed to succeed in the workplace, such as interpersonal and communication skills, critical and creative thinking skills, and an appreciation for diversity,” said Catherine “Cathy” Hurd, vice president of enrollment management.
