2+2 Program

In this program, BBA students may obtain two degrees upon graduation, one from SolBridge and one from one of our partner universities. Students complete two years of study at SolBridge and two years at another university. Those who wish to pursue this line of study must follow a specific curriculum that matches the course and credit requirements of SolBridge and that of the partner institution.

Students who participate in the 2+2 program are not required to pay any fees to SolBridge after they transfer to the partner university, and any scholarships held at SolBridge prior to the transfer are void. In some instances, however, the agreement between SolBridge and the host university may require students to continue paying tuition at SolBridge. Students are advised to consult with the Study Abroad Office about payment terms and scholarships before applying.
