## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) fully online?

Yes. This program is delivered 100% online with no required campus visits or live class meetings. Coursework is asynchronous with weekly deadlines, and everything you need, including the digital library and 24/7 Tutor.com support, is reachable from the Digital Campus.

### How long does this program take to complete?

Courses run in eight-week sessions with six start dates a year, so you move through the 120 credits required to graduate one session at a time. Full-time students take more courses per session and part-time students take fewer, and approved transfer credit reduces the credits you have left.

### What does the Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) cost?

Tuition is $535 per credit, about $32,100 for the full 60 credits before aid. There are no technology or graduation fees, employers can be billed directly, and service members, veterans, and their spouses receive a 10% tuition discount.

### Is APU Global accredited?

Yes. APU Global is separately accredited by the WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC), reaffirmed in 2024, and is a nonprofit institution sharing a Christ-centered mission and a heritage dating back to 1899 with Azusa Pacific University. That accreditation is what makes federal financial aid and credit transfer possible.

### Are there application fees or test requirements?

There is no application fee. No SAT or ACT scores are required; admission is based on a high school diploma or GED and official transcripts from any prior college. Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis against each session's deadline rather than a single annual cutoff.

### How many credits can I transfer in?

Up to 90 credits. Military training is evaluated from your Joint Services Transcript, and up to 30 credits can come from Prior Learning Assessment. The evaluation is free and results come back before you enroll.
