AccelerateU Schedule

The AccelerateU course schedule was developed in conjunction with students and alumni, so students could spend an entire day at downtown taking AccelerateU courses. To do so, all courses are once per week for three-hours. In addition, we developed two course bundles that allow students to spend six hours in AccelerateU classes in a single day, including BBA capstone courses.
