Hello,

I am very happy to learn of your interest in Antioch University Santa Barbara’s BA Program. Our program provides that personal touch that is missing from so many undergraduate programs, and at the same time provides you with high quality teaching and career preparation.  

Let me highlight some key features that distinguish our BA Program from the rest:

• Small class sizes – we guarantee a maximum of 25 students, which allows us to create a positive learning environment where each student can participate and receive ample mentoring from our faculty.
• Engaging faculty – our faculty are experienced professionals with their own businesses and practices. As such, they are able to blend real-life experience with theoretical knowledge to help you prepare for success in your future career.
• Innovative curriculum – Antioch University has a long history of being at the front of innovation, which means that you gain leading-edge information and skills in your classes.
• Caring staff – you are assigned an academic advisor who will work with you each term to help you design a schedule that meets your academic and personal needs.
• Purposeful education – all of your courses will center around six core purposes designed to graduate globally-aware citizens and socially-responsible leaders.

Our program follows the essential learning outcomes of the Association of American Colleges and Universities. AUSB is accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges & Schools (NCA).  

Feel free to get in touch if you have specific questions about our program or would like to visit campus.
