DONALDSON – Ancilla College is proud to participate in the “You Can. Go Back” program initiated by the Indiana Commission for Higher education. This Lean More Indiana initiative makes it easy for Hoosiers with some college credit to re-enroll in college and succeed.
“We are uniquely set up to assist an Indiana student who took a few college classes and, then, for whatever reason, never completed their degree,” said Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Joanna Blount. “We offer online, evening and accelerated courses as well as financial incentives, one-year certificate programs and more to make college attractive to learners looking to step up their career.”

Ancilla’s professional advisors work with students to review their case individually and match them with the right program. Ancilla’s advisors will develop an academic plan that best fits the student’s goals whether they are a non-traditional learner who has been out of school for years or a typical college-age student who now has family or a career and is looking to restart and step up.
Ancilla College offers courses for all ages. Our classrooms are often filled with students from high-school age through retirement. Ancilla also makes a point of hosting classes on different days of the week and different times of the day to accommodate working and family schedules.
