ATLANTA - In 1870, at the site of the present-day Atlanta City Hall, Oglethorpe University offered the first evening college courses in Georgia. Today, Oglethorpe’s University College offers an accelerated evening degree program for adults.

Oglethorpe’s evening program lets students earn either a Bachelor of Business Administration or Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies degree, with majors in business administration, accounting, organizational management, psychology, communications, or history. University College also offers eleven minors, from art to politics.

Oglethorpe’s University College’s year-round accelerated schedule allows each student to individualize their program of study. Conveniently located on Peachtree Road in Brookhaven between Buckhead and the Perimeter Center, Oglethorpe University offers the evening adult student full access to campus facilities and events. Students fully participate in the Oglethorpe experience, and develop close ties with top-notch faculty and fellow students. “I love the class sizes. A group of 10 makes for great discussions,” said Constitutional Law professor and attorney Aimee Maxwell. “My class is full of confident, mature students of all ages. Oglethorpe is a small community of learners so most of my students already know each other and feel comfortable speaking in class.”

“The faculty understands that we have unique needs as working adults and have full lives beyond the classroom,” said Angela Stalcup ’03. “I love that I got a quality liberal arts education at a school with the reputation and academic excellence of Oglethorpe without quitting my day job,” said Stalcup.

Summer Open House and Information Session:
July 18, 5:00-6:00 p.m. in the Admission Lobby of Lupton Hall, Oglethorpe University (4484 Peachtree Rd. NE)
