Majors and Certificates

Part Time Undergraduate Major Programs

Misericordia University's Adult Education programs recognize the special needs of the adult learner. Approximately 40% of our total student body is nontraditional. This, along with convenient predictable scheduling, makes the undergraduate programs at Misericordia University a convenient and attractive way to successfully complete your educational and career goals. Classes are available to the adult learner during the early morning, day, late afternoon, evening, online, or weekends.

 Additionally, as an official CLEP (College Level Examination Program) testing site, its acceptance of Prior Learning Assessment credits, and its transfer policy and articulation agreement with area community colleges, Misericordia University helps students transfer and quickly attain credits towards their undergraduate degree.
