If you are interested in finishing the undergraduate degree you were not able to complete at a different stage of your life, or you want to start your undergraduate degree from scratch, The School of Continuing Studies offers three bachelor's degrees for you to choose from. Each degree carries its own set of requirements, so you have an opportunity to select an academic path that best suits your needs. All courses are scheduled on weekday evenings or on Saturday mornings and afternoons to help you continue your study without taking too much valuable time away from work and family. Please see the details of our three Bachelor's Degrees below:

Bachelor of Philosophy (BPhil)

This degree is conferred by the Judd A. and Marjorie Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences, the largest college of Northwestern University. The BPhil degree stands apart from the other two degrees because of its foreign language requirement. Degree requirements.

Bachelor of Science in General Studies (BSG)
