Distinctive academic programs fuel enrollment growth
Back in August, ߲ݴý University enrolled its largest class in our 131-year history. So how is this recruiting season comparing?
Applications and deposits are above last year’s record pace—by quite a bit.
One reason why: ߲ݴý offers truly outstanding academic programs in the areas your students are seeking now. Here are just a few examples.
Intensive BFA programs
A Bachelor of Fine Arts offers an intensiveness of study in the fine and performing arts that surpasses a traditional BA. ߲ݴý’s BFA programs in art and theatre are unlike anything else in the Midwest. In fact, On Stage Blog just named ߲ݴý Theatre as one of America’s Top 25 BFA Acting/Performance Programs for 2018-2019.
Direct-entry traditional BSN
At many schools, students must complete several college-level prerequisites before they can be admitted to the BSN program. ߲ݴý University eliminates that uncertainty with its direct-entry traditional four-year BSN program. Now future nurses can enter ߲ݴý University as first-year students with full confidence that they are also accepted into our respected nursing program.
Five-year MBA
Do you counsel students who are “all business?” Our Department of Business Administration, Economics and Accounting offers dual-credit courses that count toward an MBA at ߲ݴý. With proper planning, they can earn both a BA and a Master of Business Administration from ߲ݴý in just five years.
Outstanding reputation for pre-health
Over the last 15 years, an impressive 86 percent of ߲ݴý students taking the MCAT have successfully entered medical school. That’s more than double the national medical school entrance rate of 41 percent. That’s right. ߲ݴý doubles your students’ odds of getting into medical school. And ߲ݴý is the University of Nebraska Medical Center’s third-largest feeder school.
