Returning To School?

Has it been a long time since you’ve been in the classroom? Today, there are so many flexible opportunities for you to earn your degree online when it works for you. Returning to or entering college as an adult is a different experience from our students who attend right after high school.
At St. Kate’s, we are committed to helping adult learners be successful wherever they are in their educational journey.

Learn From Anywhere, On Your Schedule

Most classes meet online, asynchronously so you can balance your studies with work and family commitments. Our online programs offer the same opportunities as our on-campus classes, including a high-quality education taught by industry-leading professors who will support you every step of the way. 

Though you won’t be on campus, you will be supported with access to all the student support services St. Kate’s offers, including the tutoring center, online library access, career development, technology assistance, academic advising, and more. 

"Access and Success truly allowed me to feel comfortable as a young mother in the nursing program! I cannot thank this program enough for the guidance and resources I received throughout my journey! 

Thank you!! "
