Bachelor question
#4
Jennr2z Wrote:Just pondering all of the different liberal studies type of Bachelors….  UMPI is a BLS, Excelsior can be either a BA or BS in Liberal Studies, TESU is a BA in Liberal Studies. What makes any of them different from each other? Is a BLS thought of as a lower degree than a BA or BS? Just curious for future employer recognition. Also have seen some Masters program requirements of a BA/BS, would a BLS generally satisfy that?   Smile

What makes any of them different from each other?
The courses you take are the main differences as some schools require a lab, language, or some other requirements.  Each school will have a set of courses they would like students to complete as a "package", some private schools may require a bible or religion course as well.

Is a BLS thought of as a lower degree than a BA or BS?
No, they're all Bachelors level, the course content should all be relatively equal, the courses/subjects may differ for each degree due to institutional requirements.

Also have seen some Masters program requirements of a BA/BS, would a BLS generally satisfy that?
Your answers will "depend" on what Masters program you're referring to as many variables come into play.  All masters programs have specific entry requirements, as long as you "hit" all those requirements, it won't matter which Bachelors you have.

Note: You should look at what Masters or graduate degree you're interested in and see what degree entry requirements there are.  Each institution would have their own entry into a very similar program provided elsewhere.  Find one that you like and make sure you have checked their requirements within the application.  You may want to review this post of mine here: TESU
