The STARS Program is designed to meets the needs of adult learners by offering accelerated classes and degrees in formats conducive to their busy lifestyles. Through the STARS Program, many of the challenges facing adult learners have been removed and services have been expanded to make accessing a college degree for adults easier than ever.

Through the STARS online, weekend or evening formats, students can earn degrees that are in demand and that lead to career growth and opportunities in today's marketplace. In addition to our undergraduate Associate and Bachelor's degrees and online degree completion programs, students can earn a Master of Business Administration (MBA) on weekends, a Master of Science in Management (MSM) online, or a Master of Science in Curriculum and Instructions (MSCI) degree with evening courses. A pre-nursing program is available for students interested in entering the field of nursing, and a Certificate in Accounting, both online and weekends, is available for students who already have a degree in another major and would now like to go into accounting, or who wish to meet the eligibility requirements to sit for the CPA exam. The STARS program can also serve students who are not degree seeking and only wish to take courses for personal enrichment or for transfer credits.

Brescia University STARS Program participants benefit from competitive tuition rates, opportunities for financial aid, employee tuition reimbursement programs, and workforce investment funds. With convenient class times and online opportunities, STARS formats address the challenges of time constraints. With one-stop shopping, a service-oriented institution, one-on-one advising, and technical assistance, learners who need flexible learning formats will be well served by the STARS Program at Brescia University.
