Overview
The University of New Hampshire's College of Professional Studies Online, formerly Granite State College, is UNH's online division for working adults and transfer students. It offers flexible bachelor's degree completion and professional programs rather than a traditional residential college experience.
Academics
Business, education, and health management are the college's core program areas, delivered online with schedules and pacing built around adult learners balancing work and family rather than a first-time student's daily class schedule.
Worth knowing
This is fundamentally different from a traditional undergraduate experience — there is no residential campus life, athletics, or typical first-year cohort, and it is best understood as a degree-completion and professional-development option for students who already have some college credit or are balancing school with work.
