EIU to hold open house at University Center of Lake County Oct. 21

Grayslake, IL - Are you interested in earning a degree with the convenience of evening, weekend, or online classes? Join us for an open house at the University Center of Lake County in Room 211A Tuesday, Oct. 21 from 5 to 6:30 p.m. to learn about the Eastern Illinois University Bachelor of Arts in General Studies degree program.

The event is open to any student interested in learning more about the bachelor of arts in general studies degree program. This degree program is for adult learners who want to complete a bachelor's degree but have limited time and family responsibilities that interfere with achieving that goal.

The BGS program is flexible, allowing students to choose their own schedules, is adult friendly, transfer friendly, and offers affordable tuition and textbook rental.

The BGS program has been around for over 41 years, and many previous students have gone on to graduate school or have received promotions.

We cater to adult students by offering courses in a format compatible with adult responsibilities. Classes are offered at locations across the Chicago area, including the University Center of Lake County.
