GLENSIDE, PA — Arcadia University has announced the launch of its fully online Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration, a flexible and globally focused program designed for working adults and returning students seeking to complete their undergraduate education.
The program provides a streamlined path to degree completion for students who already hold an associate’s degree or equivalent college credits, including approved prior learning or life experience. By emphasizing affordability and accessibility, Arcadia aims to help adult learners balance academic advancement with career and family commitments.
Courses cover core areas such as management, marketing, finance, operations, and economics while developing communication, ethical decision-making, and critical-thinking skills. Students will participate in hands-on projects, business simulations, and global case studies to prepare for the demands of today’s dynamic business landscape.
A hallmark of the Arcadia experience, the new program also integrates a strong global perspective. Students will explore international business practices, engage with global guest speakers, and collaborate with peers from diverse backgrounds to build cultural and professional adaptability.
“Working adults deserve an educational path that meets them where they are,” said Raghu Kurthakoti, PhD, associate professor of Marketing and director of graduate and online Business programs. “This new online BA in Business Administration directly addresses the needs of learners balancing multiple responsibilities. By combining affordability, flexibility, and a global business lens, we’re opening doors for many who previously believed finishing their degree was out of reach.”
Applicants must have earned an associate’s degree or at least 57 transferable credits. Graduates of the program can continue directly into Arcadia’s online MBA program to further advance their education and career prospects.
