3-Year/90-91 Credit Bachelor’s Degree
Our new 3-Year/90-91 credit bachelor’s degree programs are designed for students eager to achieve their degree faster, while reducing the cost of tuition compared to a traditional 4-year program. Approved by the New England Commission for Higher Education, Johnson & Wales University is the first institution in the nation to offer these efficient, 3-year bachelor’s programs.
Accelerated Bachelor’s Degree Pathways
JWU Online launched its accelerated bachelor’s pathway with two high-demand programs that reflect strong employer need. The initial offerings include the B.S. in Computer Science and the B.S. in Hospitality Management. Both programs offer a comprehensive foundation on which you can start your career in these dynamic fields.
How It Works:
