NEW ORLEANS — The University of Louisiana System has a new two-year online bachelor’s degree program for adults who left college about half-way through, with 60 credit hours and at least a solid C average.
The system will begin taking applications Monday for the eight-week term starting May 1, system spokeswoman Jackie Tisdell told The Times-Picayune.
Tuition is $325 per credit hour; the organizational leadership program takes 60 hours.
People with fewer than 60 credit hours to start with can take tests to earn credits or get assessments of skills learned on the job, Tisdell said. The program’s web page also suggests taking online courses to make up deficits.
Each school will offer a different specialty. For instance, the University of New Orleans will specialize in cultural and arts institutions, Grambling State University in human relations and Nicholls State University in food-service strategies and operations.
