Bachelor of General Studies Program

Student Testimonials

Lahoma Hooft DupuisWhen I first was accepted into the BGS degree program it was mainly to finish what I started so many years ago. As I have finished the course, finalized my Individual Degree Plan and have shown it to people, avenues have opened up for me that I never expected. For a future that was bright already, I cannot believe what things are going to be possible when this is finished.

Amy KesnerThe BGS program is perfect for me as a returning student working long hours at the bank. The ability to take courses in the evening and on the weekends works well with my schedule. The BGS 200 course is one of the best courses I have ever taken. It sets you on the path to success! With my degree plan and the wonderful support of my advisor, I will have my degree in no time!

Robert Rainey I sometimes find myself reflecting on all of the new possibilities for myself because of a Bachelor's degree. I would have to say that this is one of the best experiences that I have ever had, and I would encourage anyone who is thinking about school to go for it. It is worth it; again IT IS WORTH IT!!!

Alex Carlson I have greatly enjoyed my experience in the General Studies program. It gave me good direction on finding out what I wanted to do with my life and found me great classes that BSU offered to accomplish my goals.

I like the BGS program because it provides flexibility to allow students the ability to design the courses they want to take in coordination with the BGS requirements to achieve a bachelor's degree. Students can take advantage of past courses previously taken, spread out in many areas, and combine them to meet the BGS goals. They can select courses that fit their strengths and past experiences. The degree allows students a wider venue to meet individual time schedules and allows students to work at a pace that works for them.
