Undergraduate Programs Admission
The College of Continuing Education (CCE) offers options for a wide range of student populations.

Individualized Degrees
Inter-College Program (B.A. or B.S.)
This self-designed, cross-collegiate degree program empowers you to design a bachelor's degree that will uniquely prepare students to compete in a complex world. And it provides a creative, supportive learning environment to explore personal interests and goals.
Multidisciplinary Studies (B.A. or B.S.)
Designed for working adults, this program allows students with significant college course work to complete their bachelor's degree with course work relevant to their current goals.
Students work closely with their adviser to critically evaluate the options that build on experiences and previous course work to determine the best degree path.
Information Sessions
Information sessions are an important first step for most people when considering a degree program. Consider a program-specific session if you have narrowed your search, or a CCE session where you can explore your options. Choose a date and time that works for you.
