Mills College, the liberal arts educational institution for women in Oakland, California, has announced the establishment of a new degree completion program for working women. Students who have already completed at least 60 transferable college credits can complete their bachelor’s degree program with Mill College in less than two years. The new program will begin this fall.
The Mills Bachelor’s Degree Completion Program will allow working adults to complete their bachelor’s degree at night with some online and weekend classes. Mills College will offer students six degree completion majors to choose from including, business administration, English, ethnic studies, interdisciplinary studies, politics, economics, policy, and law, or sociology.
Mills College President Elizabeth L. Hillman stated that “for adult students, returning to college will inevitably improve their job prospects and raise their pay. Our six majors provide individualized and flexible credit-earning options and a pathway for working adults to complete their undergraduate degree in an inclusive and empowering learning environment that is distinctively Mills.”
