What makes UM-Flint’s Accelerated Online Degree Completion programs special?
Study 100% online
Our AODC programs are designed to accommodate your busy lifestyle, providing all classes in an online asynchronous format. That means you can study where and when it’s convenient for you. There are no set class times, so you don’t have to worry about fitting one more thing on your calendar.
Streamline your path to a bachelor’s degree
Aiming to provide the fastest return on investment, our degree completion programs enable you to complete two classes at a time with accelerated, seven-week courses. Studying in an accelerated format allows you to focus on building meaningful skills through deep, lasting learning without juggling too many priorities between classes.
Earn Credit For Prior Learning
Before starting an AODC program, students work with a dedicated academic advisor to ensure as many credits as possible transfer to a UM-Flint degree. But that’s just the beginning.
Through our Credit for Prior Learning program, you could save time thanks to experiences including:
- Military examinations and training.
- Professional training and certifications.
- Standardized exams such as AP, IB, and CLEP.
- Portfolio review – document your learning outside of the classroom and submit it for credit.
Achieve Career Success
With program options that are in demand with employers and world-respected UM-Flint bachelor’s degrees, you are empowered to elevate your career to the next level and substantially increase your earning power.
“Because of what I’ve learned in real-world settings, my college experience was even more impactful than if I had graduated at 21 years of age. The AODC programs are special because they are specifically tailored for working adults. AODC acknowledges and values our life experiences. It was a great program and I highly recommend it to everyone.”
