A college degree for under $10K? One UMaine campus says yes
The University of Maine at Presque Isle will launch a program this fall aimed at helping students earn their degree.
UMPI, which this week introduced the Competency Based Education bachelor of business administration, claims to be the first public university in New England to offer a pathway to a degree for under $10,000.
The program allows students to apply past college credit, prior learning and prior work experience toward a degree. Instead of college courses, it offers “competencies.” The cost per semester is $2,000 for both in- and out-of-state students.
The program is limited to students at least 24 years old who hold a high school diploma or equivalent and who have had some prior college credit and work experience.
This program will be offered online starting Fall 2017. Maine Public has more on the story.
