Certificate Programs for Men and Women

A postbaccalaureate certificate can help an individual transition into a new career area, gain confidence and background in a skill that requires strengthening, or pursue a new area of interest. A certificate typically represents the successful completion of from three to five courses.

Students can complete the computer studies, management, and professional communication certificates entirely in the Weekend College timeframe. Some courses in the ethics and religious studies certificate programs may be offered weekday, but students can work with Alverno for substitutions if they are unable to take daytime classes.

Tuition for certificate programs is 50% of regular Weekend College tuition on a space-available basis. Certificate programs do not qualify for financial aid.

Weekend College Certificate Programs
The following programs offer undergraduate-level courses that lead to a certificate upon completion.

Computing and Information Technology

Major Equivalency Programs
Women or men who want more depth in a subject area than is offered by a certificate program, or who want to pursue an area of study for which a certificate is not available, may complete a major (or minor) equivalent. In this situation, the student does not complete additional general education courses but focuses only on courses within the major or minor. Any Weekend College major or minor is available as a major equivalent in the weekend timeframe.

Tuition for weekend major and minor equivalents is 50% of regular Weekend College tuition on a space-available basis.
