At Colorado Mesa University, we are here to assist you in pursuing your educational goals. Whether you've never attended college, you've completed some college or even if you have a degree but want to pursue a new career — we can help!
Why should I finish my undergraduate degree?
By enrolling at Colorado Mesa University, you may be able to earn your degree more quickly and save money while doing it because of the resources and programs we offer to adult students. Our dedicated team will work with students looking to complete their degree to make sure credits from previous schooling* transfer. Having credits transfer generally means students will need to take fewer courses, which keeps money in your pocket and allows for more time outside of the classroom to balance work and family obligations. Earning a degree can also lead to a better quality of life. Bachelor's degree recipients, on average, earn 51.6% more than individuals who have some college but no degree.**
