PACE is the perfect solution for adults seeking a bachelor's degree in an accelerated course format.
The PACE program is designed for adults with work experience who want to earn a bachelor's degree. This accelerated program requires students to be highly motivated and dedicated. PACE students juggle family, work, and school, and the program is designed to make this possible. Adult learners have goals in mind and possess the determination to achieve those goals.
Who should consider PACE?
The program is able to bring students in at many levels if they display the desire to be successful. Generally, adult students in the PACE program have work experience and some college credit.
How the program works.
PACE focuses on one class at a time. Classes are usually held in the evenings, one night per week from 6 to 10 p.m. Depending on the major, a course will run for 5, 8, or 10 weeks, then students move directly into the next course. Because of the accelerated nature of the program, students should expect a significant amount of time to be spent on homework assignments outside of the classroom. Refer to the About PACE section for more detailed program information.
Milkiness PACE program offers these majors:
Accounting (B.S.)
Early Childhood Education (B.S.)
Elementary Education (B.S.)
Nursing (R.N. to B.S.N.)

PACE also offers Educator Certification in Early Childhood or Elementary Education for individuals with a baccalaureate degree.
Secondary Educator Certification is offered through Millikin University to adults who already hold a bachelor's degree in specific fields. For more specific information, go to PACE Academic Programs.
