University College is not just geared toward one type of student. We are organized to serve all learners, whether you are a teenager or young adult trying to get ahead or catch up, an adult student looking to complete or start a degree, or if you are looking for job training and professional development for yourself or your employees. We meet you where you are and work with you to overcome whatever barriers you face.

You can jump right into learning and networking with experienced professionals, and gaining the skills you need to get ahead and make a change in your community.
The School of Professional and Continuing Studies offers hyper-flexible programs focused on degree completers, career changers and adult students looking to start or continue their education. We'll honor your personal and professional experiences through our Prior Learning Assessment process and provide support systems designed with you and your demands in mind.
