Now Accepting Applications for Spring 2025
Are you considering an advanced degree in nursing or another healthcare profession? Are you wondering how you’ll be able to balance graduate courses with your career and your personal life? Otterbein University is offering a chance for personal growth and expanded professional opportunity. Get an exceptional science core foundation with meaningful benefits designed to meet the demands of the working professional.
One aspect of the creation of the Coalition for the Common Good (CCG), a first-of-its-kind national higher education system of private, nonprofit universities, means Otterbein’s graduate programs are evolving, expanding, and changing.
The exceptional curriculum and individualized attention that defined the excellence of Otterbein’s advanced degrees will still be available in central Ohio, but now will also grow to serve learners and professionals from the east coast to the west coast. These changes and this growth are possible thanks to our CCG co-founding partner, Antioch University.
Antioch University is regarded as one of the nation’s best national universities for delivering a powerful, meaningful online and low-residency graduate experience. Antioch University has a national presence and includes campuses in L.A., Santa Barbara, Seattle, New Hampshire, and Ohio. With exceptional faculty expertise and a culture much like Otterbein’s, Antioch University values personal attention and high-touch experiences for learners.
We also know that working professionals want more flexibility. Graduate learners want to be able to get an education on a schedule, in a format, and in a delivery style that honors the complexities of balancing advanced studies with professional and personal demands. Antioch University has a proven track record of understanding these need while delivering an exceptional educational experience. We also know that Antioch University shares Otterbein’s regard, respect, and care for every graduate student’s goals and professional aspirations.
We are working with all our current students to assist in their transition and are proud to help new students find the answers they need to explore the benefits of Antioch University.
