Going back to college doesn’t have to be a struggle. At Lander University, we know that our graduate and online students are working professionals looking to advance their careers with a college education. We’re proud to offer a wide variety of bachelor’s and master’s degrees that you can easily take with you wherever you go.
Some of our students work on spreadsheets at the kitchen table after feeding their families dinner on school nights. Some are healthcare professionals or law enforcement officers who work night and weekend shifts. Some have had to revise their essays after some accidental keyboard entries from their toddler-aged children.
At Lander, we understand those challenges of daily life, and our flexible programs are designed to remove barriers to earning a college degree. No matter your lifestyle, our award-winning faculty are dedicated to delivering a quality education, and are always ready to assist you on your college journey.
Return on Investment
We firmly believe that higher education is the right investment for our students, and we’re committed to providing a quality education at a price that is affordable for working professionals.
