Academic Programs
Saint Joseph College has a wide variety of academic programs from which to choose:
Our undergraduate programs for women offers approximately 24 majors that you may complete through full-time or part-time study. Classes are held during the day and evening and are open to all students.
The Weekend Program for Adult Learners offers academic programs, which have been designed to meet the needs of working adult students. Classes are held evenings, Saturdays, and online. These programs may be completed through full-time or part-time study.
Advising Services
Our academic advising services are designed to help you explore these academic offerings and pursue your career goals through individual advising and additional support programs. In our undergraduate programs for women, you will be advised by a professional advisor in the Advisement Center until the middle of your sophomore year, at which time you will declare your major and a faculty member in that department will become your advisor.
In The Weekend Program for Adult Learners, you will be advised in the Advisement Center until you have completed a total of 45 credits from all college work. At that time you will be advised by a faculty member in your major department. SJC advisors will encourage you to recognize how your interests and abilities relate to academic majors, to clarify your values and to plan educational programs which will enable you to explore options for continued intellectual and professional development.
