Are there opportunities to put my social justice studies to good use in the community?
Yes. There are a plethora of community/field-based learning experiences in which you might engage in and get credit for. Below are a few examples of what you might do:
- Practicum with a King County youth justice program
- Practicum with a women's domestic violence shelter
- Service learning project with an immigrant rights advocacy program
- Community organizing for enforcement of the endangered species act
Is it possible to enter this bachelor's degree completion program without deciding my specialization?
Some students enter with a clear idea about their focus. Others do not. Your adviser can help you find ways to think about and articulate your field of study. It all depends on your unique educational purposes. Your interests may start out fairly vague and gain in definition over time. You may begin the degree process with a set of general questions about certain topics or disciplines that pique your curiosity. As you move through the degree process, you develop a more focused sense for your academic specialization.
How many credits are required in an academic concentration?
Regardless of whether you choose individualized or structured learning, your academic concentration requires a minimum of 45 credits, although students often earn more credits than this in their area of specialization.
Can I use courses I’ve taken at other institutions to meet the requirements of this area of concentration?
Yes. Students transfer previous coursework taken at community colleges and at other universities.
Can I complete more than one academic concentration?
Students sometimes find it desirable to complete a second area of concentration. In this case, only 35 credits are required as a minimum for the additional area.
How long does it take to complete my undergraduate degree?
Most students graduate from the B.A. completion program in two years or less. Completion of 180 quarter credits is required for graduation. These may include transcript credits from other colleges and universities, Antioch University credits and prior learning credits earned through Antioch's credit for life experience program. You must enroll for a minimum of four quarters and at least 36 current learning credits to get your liberal arts degree from Antioch.
