Program for Alumni Career Enhancement (PACE)

Lakeland University’s unique Program for Alumni Career Enhancement (PACE) offers Lakeland Bachelor of Arts degree graduates the opportunity to return to the classroom to achieve their evolving career goals. A Lakeland graduate can, for example, strengthen a major or minor, add a new major or minor, develop a new area of concentration, or complete certification requirements for a new profession. This program offers Lakeland traditional on-campus undergraduate program courses to alumni at a reduced cost.

A student seeking to add a major or minor through the PACE opportunity is expected to complete the additional required coursework through Lakeland. If there are complications with course availability, the university may consider granting the application of two (2) new transfer courses to the major or minor requirements providing that such an application adheres to the college’s standard transfer policy.

A Lakeland University graduate returning under the PACE program will not receive a second degree nor will the graduate receive another diploma if the degrees are the same. The new major (and/or minor) will appear on the graduate’s transcript as an additional major (and/or minor). The graduate will only receive a second degree and another diploma if the initial degree earned was a B.A. and is now pursuing a B.S., or vice versa.
