Bethany Summer Online Courses

Six years ago, Bethany entered into a partnership with like-minded institutions to provide selected online courses to our students. The relationship has developed attractively during that time, and the collaborative (known as the Online Consortium of Independent Colleges and Universities, or OCICU) now provides an opportunity for Bethany students to take up to 12 credit hours (over four years) during a special summer period in a cost-effective manner.

All courses are "housed" at Bethany College—meaning that students will have no difficulties associated with transferring credits from other institutions. Additionally, all courses listed have applicability to Bethany College requirements (as stated in the current catalog).

This is a cost-effective, convenient way for our students to meet degree requirements in an easily accessible format. Although nothing replaces the valuable experience of the residential liberal arts college, this option provides our students with greater technological proficiency and opportunities amid current trends in American higher education.
