About Baker College Within a few years on either side of the turn of the twentieth century, two proprietary institutions of higher education were founded. Though completely independent of each other, both shared a common mission—to provide students with the skills needed for employment in the great industries of their times. In 1965, after half a century of separate but parallel existence, the two institutions came together under a single management group headed by Robert Jewell of Muskegon.
The organization has flourished in the years following that initial union. Now known as the Baker College System, it is the largest independent college in Michigan, with over 30,000 students in more than 140 programs on 12 campuses and four branch locations. Throughout years of tremendous growth and success, Baker College has maintained its original mission: to provide quality higher education and training which enables graduates to be successful throughout challenging and rewarding careers. Over 15,000 students worldwide have found Baker to be their best choice in online education.

Baker's 15 different online degree programs are designed to prepare you 100% for your new career or advanced position as quickly as possible, with no additional training required. That's exactly what employers are looking for! Baker offers Master degrees, Bachelor degrees, and Associate degrees in growing, high-demand career fields.
At Baker College Online, you take your entire degree program through your computer, using the Internet to link faculty and students. This process can occur between two computers in the same town or between computers on opposite sides of the earth, at whatever time best fits into your schedule. All students in Baker's online environment become actively involved in interactive learning groups. Courses are typically six weeks in length and have regularly scheduled beginning and end dates. On the first day of each course the online instructor sends an introductory lecture to begin the study process for the week. To stimulate discussions, the instructor would also typically include discussion questions related to the topic at the end of his/her lecture. As the week progresses, you work on your readings and assignments, and you participate in classroom discussions using the computer. Your instructors are readily available to receive your questions and to provide feedback, and they keep you informed of your status weekly. You should never be unaware of what is expected of you.
Baker is one of the most affordable options for higher education available to busy working adult students. Undergraduate cost per credit hour: $165 Graduate cost per credit hour: $255
