    About

    The Bachelor of Applied Studies (BAS) is an online degree program designed for community college graduates who have earned at least 60 hours of college coursework and wish to complete a bachelor's degree online.

    BAS is a general undergraduate degree without a traditional academic major. Instead, students work with their academic advisors to structure programs that meet their individual objectives.

    Students may choose to incorporate an optional Emphasis Area or online certificate program into their BAS studies.
