Each application is reviewed on an individual basis, and we use a rolling admissions process. You will be immediately notified of your admission status as soon as the admissions office makes its decision. Apply online at your convenience at any time, or you can contact a BU Online recruitment coordinator to request a paper application and enrollment kit.

The transfer process is easy. There are two admissions options for students who are interested in completing their degree with us. Students who have sufficient transferrable credit hours from another accredited college or university are eligible to enter a degree program upon acceptance. Students who do not have previous college experience or who have fewer than 45 transferrable credit hours will be admitted to an associate-level course of online study.

Our degrees are affordable, and financial aid is available for all who qualify. To receive federal, state and institutional financial aid, you must obtain a personal identification number (PIN) and file a free application for federal student aid (FAFSA). After your FAFSA is filed, Brescia is informed of your eligibility, and we determine your need-based aid. Then you’ll receive an award letter and return it. That’s it!
