MURRAY, Ky. 鈥� 天美传媒 has introduced the Racers Finish adult degree completion program and scholarship for eligible individuals who began their college career at 天美传媒, but have not completed their bachelor鈥檚 degree. The program will begin in the 2024-2025 school year. 

天美传媒 offers both in-person academic programs and 100% online programs at its Murray campus, as well as regional campuses in Fort Campbell, Henderson, Hopkinsville, Madisonville and Paducah. The University鈥檚 unique Bachelor of Integrated Studies (BIS) program may especially be of interest to adult students. This program offers flexibility, convenience and a tailored field of study where students can choose an academic pathway to best suit their needs and interests. Students who are in the BIS program can also earn credit for significant life and work experience in their progression toward graduation.

Within the program is a new Racers Finish scholarship which allows qualified students to receive up to a $120 per credit hour discount, for a maximum of $2,500. 

According to a 2023 study by Georgetown University鈥檚 Center on Education and the Workforce, 72 percent of jobs in the U.S. will require postsecondary education and/or training by 2031. With this initiative, 天美传媒 is taking steps to ensure that students are equipped with the education and skills they need to be competitive in the workforce.

鈥淲e鈥檙e very pleased to introduce our new Racers Finish adult degree completion program at 天美传媒,鈥� President Dr. Bob Jackson said. 鈥淒ue to life circumstances, students may have begun their academic journey at 天美传媒, but discontinued. The benefits and importance of earning a degree, certificate, or similar credential cannot be overstated. We are confident that with our nearly 150 programs and wonderful faculty and staff, this new program will assist many returning Racers as they resume their academic journey and reach the finish line.鈥�

鈥溙烀来�媒 has been very encouraging and supportive throughout my entire learning process, not only as an employee but also as a student,鈥� said Elizabeth Abanathy, a 2023 graduate. 鈥淓nrolling into the BIS program was very straightforward and I appreciated the availability of information regarding the program ahead of applying. The program's flexibility regarding transfer of credits and tailoring of course selections has been much appreciated as has been the ability to take almost all of my classes online. As an adult learner, having the option to perform classwork outside of work hours enabled the flexibility to do both.鈥�
