FORUM was designed for managers to gain the Associates or Bachelors degree they need while they continue to work. They work one on one with a mentor who advises and guides them through the degree process. They’ll mostly be working independently, but they will also (unlike online and pure independent study options) attend class two times per semester, exchange ideas face to face with fellow students and professors, and become part of a community of high-level learners. At the end of it all, they will receive a degree from SUNY in a business management major of their own design.

One thing that many students find attractive about our program is that, of the 128 credits required by Empire State College for the bachelor’s degree, they can receive up to 96 credits for life experience. Students get credit (with no tuition charge) for training they have received over the years, languages they may speak, associates degrees, work experience, military service, and a range of other experience. So the very aggressive student could finish in a year to a year and a half.
