Weekend
College is a convenient and flexible way for busy, working adults like
yourself to complete a college degree. We understand you face the demands of
family, work and related obligations. We know you don't have time to waste.
So we designed Weekend College to provide the most flexible scheduling
options possible, offering quality instruction in an expedient, time-saving
delivery on weekends.

Weekend
College is best suited for adults who are highly motivated, know what they
want, and why they want it. In other words, it's for you if you want to:
-
increase
success at your current job
-
enhance your
value to current and future employers
-
advance in the
workplace
-
make more
money
-
self-improve
for personal reward
-
earn a
necessary credential
-
position
yourself in a changing workplace

Classes are
offered Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. An associate's degree-that can
enhance your work performance or transfer to a four-year college or
university-may be obtained within eight semesters of weekend study by
following a prescribed program. If you want to accelerate your program, you
can weave weekday or weeknight classes, telecourses, web classes and "credit
for prior learning" into your schedule.

If you want a
bachelor's degree, Weekend College gives you the opportunity to affordably
step toward the possibility of a four-year degree. Kalamazoo Valley
Community College has articulation agreements with public and private
colleges and universities throughout Michigan. By working with a KVCC
counselor, you can be assured that your classes will transfer and will apply
toward a bachelor's degree in your field of study. You won't even have
to leave Kalamazoo to complete your four-year degree. Spring Arbor College,
Phoenix University and Siena Heights University all offer a variety of
accelerated programs for the adult student-some right at KVCC. And a
partnership with Franklin University gives you the opportunity to complete a
bachelor's degree via the web when you become a KVCC student.

To apply to
Weekend College call us at (269)373-7834. Ask for a credit class schedule to
be mailed to you and, at the same time, make an appointment with a
counselor. You'll find an
application for admission to
KVCC inside the credit class schedule. This general application is what you
need; there is no special application specifically for Weekend College.
