The Bachelor of Professional Studies (BPS) program provides adult students with the skills they need to succeed in the 21st century. We offer four concentrations, plus minors in healthcare and medical services management as well as project management.  

BPS students receive the best of the College of Charleston experience while taking fully online or Live Online courses. We designed this program with flexibility in mind. Now, busy adults can balance their work and life responsibilities with their academics. Plus, BPS students receive a 20% discount on their tuition, a discounted enrollment deposit and an application fee waiver! 

Keep an eye on application deadlines and explore BPS admission criteria on your own, or contact the admissions team. 

What makes BPS perfect for you? 

• Quality Education: Earn your degree from the highly-rated and AACSB-accredited College of Charleston School of Business. 
• Streamlined schedule: Most classes are offered as 8-week express terms instead of full semester courses so you can fit more classes into your busy schedule and graduate faster.
• Flexible course delivery: You can attend class in person, online or watch a recording of the lecture. The best part - you can choose your delivery method from week-to-week. 
• Affordability: There's no application fee, a reduced enrollment deposit and a 20% discount on your tuition. Plus, we offer scholarships specifically for adult students. 
• Credit Transfer: Even before you apply, our pre-transfer advisors work with you to ensure maximum transferability of credits. You may also transfer up to 30 credit hours from your Joint Services Transcript and/or Community College of the Air Force Transcript. 
• Support for success: You'll have access to personalized academic advising, career development, mentoring, resume and interview prep and individualized professional coaching - for life!
