Bachelor of Applied Science
Mid-America Christian University’s Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) in Business is an innovative, high-impact program designed specifically for adult learners, transfer students, and Associate degree holders. By eliminating non-essential general electives and focusing squarely on key business competencies, this streamlined 90-credit hour pathway respects your time, reduces educational costs, and gives you a definitive competitive edge in the marketplace—all through a faith-forward, Biblical worldview.
EXPLORE THE BAS IN BUSINESS
Designed for working professionals who balance work, family, and community responsibilities, this hyper-focused curriculum removes traditional “credit-hour friction.” While a traditional bachelor’s degree requires 120 credit hours, this accelerated track allows you to cross the finish line in just 90 credits—saving you an estimated $15,000 in total educational costs.
Delivered in an accelerated, five-week format, the curriculum dives deeply into essential elements of leadership and organizational success. Despite its streamlined framework, the program maintains strict academic rigor. It fully satisfies the 12 Common Professional Components required by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) and is in complete compliance with the Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education (OSRHE).
Program Options
- Accelerated Online Classes: Take courses in a flexible, five-week format designed around your busy schedule.
- Maximum Transfer Flexibility: If you already hold an Associate degree or applicable transfer credits, you may need as few as 30 credits (roughly 10 courses) to graduate.
