An investment that pays dividends for life

Returning adult students are working toward earning degrees that will pay dividends for the rest of their lives. They may be preparing for advancement in their current positions or seeking entirely new careers.

Employees who have the skills employers value

Our graduates are known throughout Minnesota and the upper Midwest as employees who can make  important contributions from the beginning. Employers know that we provide training and education that results in skills valued in many types of organizations. Students who complete degrees online or at one of our 12 campuses in the region have credentials that start them on the path to successful careers.

Credit for prior learning and work experience

Many adults who return to college have earned credits elsewhere or have completed workplace or military training. They may be eligible to receive transfer credit or credit for workplace experience and training. Our program is especially generous, as we do not charge tuition for credits completed elsewhere. Students save time and money and start their new or enhanced careers more quickly. Students should contact the campus dean about the process of applying for credit.

Online learning especially helpful to students with busy schedules

Online study is particularly helpful to returning adults. Such students usually have full-time jobs and demanding schedules. They may have children and other family obligations that consume much of their spare time. Online college allows them to complete their class assignments late at night, at the breakfast table or on the weekend. They can continue to work and meet their other commitments.
