Notes

The Saturday Hybrid BA Degree Completion program accepts 15 students per cohort, with one cohort starting each fall semester. Once we have admitted 15 students, we start a wait list so that applicants may move off of that list if someone cancels.

Also, being on the waitlist ensures your spot in the formation of the next cohort for the following semester. If this occurs, speak with an advising coordinator to see if there is coursework you can complete in that semester-in-waiting before you join your cohort the following semester.
