Top weekends a month.


Most individuals don’t have the luxury of putting their lives on hold to go back to school. Many think they will eventually find the time to get a bachelor’s or master’s, but it never happens.


Knowing this, Springfield College School of Human Services has created a program that meets on weekends, typically two weekends a month. To supplement your classroom work, you will interact with your instructors and fellow students online, on your own schedule.


16 to 24 Months Earn your bachelor’s or master’s degree in as little as 16 months, saving you time and money.


The majority of our students are able to earn their degrees in less than two years. This accelerated format helps you to earn your degree quickly.


You will have to focus and you will have to work. But it will be well worth your time and your effort. Your advisor, along with campus staff and faculty, will help you to figure out exactly how to get there, fast.


Support for Adults Get the support you need from attentive staff and from the Academic Success Center located on your campus.


This isn’t kid stuff. We understand that many of you have been away from the academic scene for five, 10, or even 20 plus years. You may be worried that your paper writing skills aren’t up to snuff, and maybe you could use a boost to your technological skills.


This is why each of our campuses has an academic specialist to help you develop the skills you need to succeed in your programs.


Credit for Prior Learning Earn undergraduate college credit for what you already know.


There aren’t many schools that will allow you to apply as many as 72 credits that you’ve earned in a previous educational program toward your degree. Not only that, but we also value the experience which comes with many of your other work and life experiences. Do you have a military background? Do you speak a second language? Have you taken part in professional trainings? We have a process in place for claiming these and other valuable learning experiences for credits.

An Affordable Degree The accelerated format, affordable tuition, and staff members to help you navigate the


financial aid process combine to make this an affordable program.


School can be expensive, no doubt about it. But if you are able to cut four years into two, or even 16 months, imagine the money you could save. And because we have the highest level of accreditation offered—regional accreditation—we are able to offer financial aid to students who qualify.
