COD Hosts Information and Advising Sessions for 3+1 Benedictine Program

College of DuPage and Benedictine University will host information and advising sessions this spring for the new COD/Benedictine 3+1 Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree in Management program.

Information sessions are scheduled for Tuesday, March 6, at 1 p.m. and again at 4 p.m. in the Berg Instructional Center (BIC), Room 2510.

In addition, walk-in advising sessions are scheduled from 1 to 5 p.m. in BIC 1404 on Wednesday, March 21; Wednesday, April 11; Thursday, April 19; and Wednesday, May 2.

The COD/Benedictine 3+1 agreement enables Accounting, Management and

Marketing students to earn a B.A. degree in Management from Benedictine University at the

College's Glen Ellyn campus.

During the first three years of the 124 credit-hour Accounting program, students complete 85 credit hours of College of DuPage courses. The final 39 credit hours of Benedictine coursework are taught in an accelerated format by BenU professors at COD. Students enrolled in the 129 credit-hour Management or Marketing programs complete 90 credit hours of College of DuPage coursework and an additional 39 credit hours of Benedictine courses taught in an accelerated format by Benedictine professors at COD.

Students pay COD tuition rates for the first 85 credit hours (Accounting) or 90 credit hours (Management/Marketing) of COD coursework, with the final 39 credit hours of Benedictine courses offered at a significantly reduced tuition rate. BenU also provides admissions, advising and financial aid services at COD to enable students to have a seamless transition.

Students who are unable to attend the information and advising sessions listed above can call COD Admissions Specialist José Alferez at (630) 942-3146 or the Benedictine University Enrollment Center at (630) 820-6300 to schedule an appointment.
