CLIMB

CLIMB is a unique alternative to the traditional method of earning an undergraduate degree. CLIMB serves adult learners who develop structured approaches and solutions to real-world problems.

CLIMB is for accelerated nontraditional degree options at Wilberforce University. CLIMB serves adults ages 23 and older who have completed a minimum of 45 college semester hours with a cumulative 2.0 GPA or better.

The adult learners are typically employed full-time. Thus, CLIMB offers flexible evening courses in the following formats: Online, Campus or Blended. Each of our degree options is one night per week over an 18-month period.

CLIMB offers the adult learner the opportunity to earn the requisite semester hours of credit. We value prior knowledge, work experience, and technical training.

Our students are eligible to receive additional semester hours of credit through the required prior learning portfolio process. Credit hours can be earned for technical and professional non-collegiate training, employment, and life-learning experiences through a Portfolio Curriculum. Students identify their experiences in a mandatory essay format and document all appropriate credentials in a portfolio for evaluation.
