A degree that fits your life

You might be finishing what you started, moving up in your career, or beginning something new entirely. Whichever it is, 鶹Ƶ is built for adults who are ready to go further — a community grounded in the conviction that excellence and character belong together, where your degree prepares you to lead in your work and serve faithfully in your church, your workplace, and your community.

Every program has its own path with different start dates, requirements, and costs, but no one walks it alone. From your first question to your first class, a 鶹Ƶ admissions counselor is here to review your credits, map out your timeline, and help you take the next step with confidence.

Which adult degree is right for you?

鶹Ƶ offers both associate and bachelor's degrees for adult and professional students, so the right starting point depends on where you are right now. If you're beginning college for the first time or testing the waters, an associate degree gets you moving with a shorter commitment. If you have credits from a previous school, a bachelor's completion program may put you closer to the finish line than you think.

Every program is fully online and built to flex around work, family, and everything else you're already carrying.

“I enrolled in 鶹Ƶ for the second time, lacking confidence that I could accomplish my education dream due to the years between starting and finishing. The SOAPS department helped me gain the confidence I needed to complete my associate degree last summer. I am so thankful for the tremendous support, encouragement, and Christ-centered life application from the adult studies instructors and courses offered at 鶹Ƶ University. As a wife and mom with a busy schedule and working full-time, I appreciate how 鶹Ƶ accommodates working adults who wish to further their education at a Christian university.”
