General Studies
MVNU's General Studies courses have been designed for adult learners who want to complete their college degree but do not have a sufficient number of credits to enroll in an undergraduate degree-completion program or have enough total credits to graduate.
By combining General Studies courses with those in your chosen undergraduate program, it is possible to obtain your degree in a very timely and convenient way (all courses offered exclusively online). And, by working one-on-one with a GPS academic advisor, you'll be able to create a graduation plan that's specifically designed to meet your individual academic needs.
