Bachelor of Science in Organizational Management

Earning a degree doesn’t have to be complicated. You just have to find a program that caters to your busy schedule. The Organizational Management Accelerated Degree from Bethel College does just that. Students can earn a degree in 18 months by taking classes just once a week for four hours right on the campus of SMC. In this program, faculty and business leaders provide expertise and offer a dynamic exchange of ideas that prepares students for successful careers in business or graduate school. To be accepted, a student must have already completed 62 credit hours at SMC or another accredited college. In fact, you can transfer up to 88 credits from SMC to Bethel's program.

The additional hours needed to meet the 124 hour minimum for the baccalaureate degree may be completed at Southwestern Michigan College or other accredited colleges or universities or through Prior Learning Assessment (PLA).

The student must possess an overall grade point average of 2.0 or greater in all transfer credits to participate.
