BUILT ON TRADITION. FOCUSED ON THE FUTURE.

We’ve been providing high-quality, career-building liberal arts degree programs since 1888. That’s more than 125 years of helping students just like you – from business pros to politicians – prepare for better, brighter futures.

Now well into our second century of service, we’re rededicating ourselves to give you the programs of study you need to get ahead in your career and in your life. The format for our curriculum is perfect for busy working professionals. It lets you progress through your program, one class at a time, for an intense and enlightening learning experience as well as a faster graduation date – as little as 40 months for a bachelor’s program or 12 months for a graduate degree!
