Harrisburg Area Community College and Drexel University

Partners in Providing HACC Graduates with Unique Opportunities to Earn a Drexel University Bachelor's Degree Online

Earn a Drexel bachelor's degree from your home or office via the Internet

A bachelor's degree is more important than ever. Harrisburg Area Community College and Drexel University recognize that employment and family commitments make it impossible for many qualified and motivated learners to participate in a traditional, on-campus bachelor's degree program. That's why HACC and Drexel have teamed up to develop innovative transfer programs that allow qualified HACC graduates to attend Drexel University's fully online bachelor's degree programs. HACC graduates can transfer credit for course work completed at HACC and earn credit for other prior learning experiences. *Eligible students need to have completed their HACC associate's degree program before starting classes at Drexel.
