Adult Education- Right in our Backyard As an adult, continuing your education can be hard. It takes a large amount of time and can be very costly as well. However, there are more opportunities than you might think, right here in Grove City. For just one night a week, it is pos- sible to earn your Associate’s, Bachelor’s and even Master’s degrees from Ohio Christian University – from classes held right behind the Grove City Naz in the Christian School Classrooms. Sunny Stewart, the Grove City Recruiter and Corporate Developer for Ohio Christian University sat down to explain some of details of Ohio Christian University’s adult education programs. For just one night a week, it is possible to earn your Associate’s, Bachelor’s and even Master’s degrees. “We offer two year program options in an associate of arts in business management and human services,” she said. “We also offer any of Ohio Christian’s business programs at the four-year bachelor level – from marketing to management. You can make your degree unique to your own career field. Our MBA program takes a little under two years – not bad at all for one night a week.” Stewart went on to explain classes are from 6pm to 10pm, and professors from the main campus teach the classes. According to Stewart, it’s a faster route than the traditional campus feel, but the same education and same accredited degree. “Because Ohio Christian is an accredited university, students eligible for FAFSA funding and other grants or schol- arships can apply that to our degrees,” Stewart said. “My favorite part of representing our Grove City campus is that even though you’re 35 minutes away from our main campus, you’re still getting the quality education that we offer our students here in Circleville.” The cost, with books, full-time tuition and student fees per semester is around : Associates $4,750 Bachelors $5750 CHAMBER BUSINESS CONNECTION 16
