PACE Program

Otterbein College created its PACE Program in the Fall of 1996. We designed this flexible program for adults like you who want to maximize transfer credits, attend classes one night per week and weekends, and complete your BA in just 23 months - with the option of taking longer if you need to.

Otterbein's PACE Program now offers you a choice of five majors:

Program Features
  • The opportunity to complete your degree in just 23 months by taking 2 courses per term over 4 terms (Fall, Winter, Spring, Summer) plus a December Term course. Requires 90 quarter hours (60 semester hours) of transfer credit, including selected prerequisites.
  • The flexibility to complete one of the PACE majors at a similar rate if you have little or no college credit.
  • A combination of one-night-per-week and weekend classes. Evening classes meet for 3.25 hours. Weekend classes meet Friday nights or Saturdays for 4 hours, generally every other weekend (6 sessions plus a final exam period).
  • The choice of scheduling your classes a year in advance and enrolling in a December Term course at no charge (requires a pattern of 2 courses per term over 4 consecutive terms)
  • The option of set-your-own-PACE scheduling to accommodate your busy work and personal schedules.
  • The benefit of small classes for enhanced learning and interaction with your peers.
  • The average class size is 15 students.
