Evening & Online Adult Studies
Don’t put off your dream of completing an undergraduate degree or propelling your career forward with a certificate. ACCESS is designed for students like you.
For more than 40 years, DeSales University’s award-winning ACCESS program has been helping adults like you achieve your educational goals. Whether you want to earn a bachelor’s degree, pursue specialized training leading to a certificate, or just take courses to enrich your life, you’re welcome in ACCESS.
ACCESS programs are designed with adults in mind. Accelerated degree classes meet on campus one evening per week for six- or eight-week sessions—or you can take your classes completely online. You can also choose to take day classes on the traditional 15-week schedule. And if life demands that you take time off, you can return when you’re ready and pick up just where you left off.
New: Data Analytics Tracks for Evening and Online Adult Studies
Several of our ACCESS programs have added a new Data Analytics track. Don’t put off your dream of completing an undergraduate degree or propelling your career forward with a certificate.
Explore these ACCESS majors to learn more: Accounting, Business Administration, Finance, Management, Marketing, and Supply Chain Management.

Dean's List for Summer 2020: Lifelong Learning
Congratulations to the following lifelong learning students for making the Summer 2020 Dean’s List.
To qualify for Dean’s List, a student must have a minimum 3.50 GPA on no fewer than 12 credit hours (excluding pass/fail and audited courses). Our university patron, Saint Francis de Sales, had such a high regard for learning that he considered education to be the “eighth sacrament.” With that same esteem, the president, administration, and faculty of the University congratulate these men and women on their outstanding achievement.
