Accelerated Degree Program
Advance is a unique accelerated business degree designed for working adults who want to further their education while balancing work and family. After earning an associate degree from Kirkwood, you can transfer to a four-year college or university to complete your bachelor's degree.

You can take courses on evenings and weekends, once-a-week, in five- and 10 week blocks. Outside projects and assignments complement the abbreviated class meeting schedule.

If you're interested in Advance, you need a minimum of three years work experience, to be at least 21 years old and demonstrate competencies in reading, writing and math, either through COMPASS test scores or previous college experiences.
