   The college offers bachelor’s degrees in business administration with concentrations in accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, and computerized information systems, plus a general business option.

   Getting in

   Applications should be checked directly with the college, especially if you are applying from outside the United States. Confirm entry requirements, document requirements, deadlines, and whether your chosen programme is available in your preferred study format or location; the official website is the place to verify current admissions steps.

   What it costs

   The college does not publish a fee range in the available information; confirm tuition with its admissions office. Expect additional living costs in Cumberland or any other study location, and budget separately for housing, transport, food, insurance, and course materials.

   Coming from abroad

   The language of instruction is not published, so confirm that before applying. Also check whether your programme is offered on campus or online, what immigration or visa documents you will need, and whether classes are available at the campus or extension site you plan to use.

   How it compares

   Among the 2,515 universities in the United States, this college stands out more as a public community college than as a large research institution. Its published offer is narrower than that of many universities, which can make it a practical choice if you want a focused set of bachelor’s options rather than a broad catalogue.
