Weekend College
The Perfect Program for Working Professionals
Earn an interdisciplinary Bachelor of Liberal Arts degree from
the University of Richmond in only two years.
Convenient and Flexible. In 2 years, students take
2 courses each Fall and Spring and 1 course each May term. Classes are
held on Friday evenings and Saturdays, supplemented by weekly faculty-led
online discussions. New students enter in the fall,
organized into cohorts that proceed together through the program. Cohorts
study at the University of Richmond's main campus [find

Valuable University Resources. Take advantage of the
University of Richmond's extensive resources. Research our financial aid packages including scholarships,
grants, and loans. And Virginia residents can take advantage of the
