The 100 percent online University of Wisconsin-Parkside Bachelor of Science in Business Administration offered through UW Flexible Option is now more readily available to students in Northern Wisconsin, thanks to two articulation agreements recently signed by UW-Parkside and Nicolet College.
Through the agreements, graduates of Nicolet College’s Associate of Applied Science in Business Management can continue their education remotely by transitioning to the UW Flexible Option BSBA program. Graduates are automatically eligible for the UW Flexible Option BSBA program provided they meet the admission criteria. They’ll also receive up to 60 transfer credits for the BSBA program.
The UW Flexible Option BSBA program offers an opportunity to learn and demonstrate fundamental business management skills applicable to nearly any career field. The competency-based program is 100% online and designed for busy working adults.
The agreements were signed by Dr. Lynn Akey, Chancellor of UW-Parkside, and Kate Ferrel, President of Nicolet College in a ceremony at Nicolet College in Rhinelander, Wis., last week. Dr. Peter Knight, Academic Director for the UW-Parkside BSBA program was in attendance along with Crystal Fey, UW Flexible Option Program Director.
“This articulation agreement helps students utilize their two-year Nicolet College degree and move seamlessly into a degree completion program with UW-Parkside,” Fey says. “Students will earn their degree in business administration, with an AACSB accredited program, all online while continuing to live and work in their home community.”
