Campus Director, Shana Weiss says the campus’s prices might not be completely comparable to CVTC and UW-Eau Claire, but the services they offer like mentorship, writing labs and small class sizes make the difference.

The school offers a diploma program, associates degrees, bachelors degrees and also and also an MBA program online. Weiss says the program is a hybrid so students can take some courses at a residential setting and some classes online.

Globe University offers full-time and part-time classes both in the classroom and online.
The campus has received a tremendous amount of community support, Weiss said. She says they are excited to make their mark in Wisconsin.
