The Regents Bachelor of Arts degree is an innovative baccalaureate designed for adult students. The basic principle underlying the degree is that credit is awarded for what students know regardless of how that knowledge was attained. The program differs from other bachelor degrees in that Regents students may earn "college-equivalent credit" for selected work and life experiences which can be equated to colleges courses.
