Program Changes – On-Campus Programs to Online Degree Completion Programs

Any current Hilbert student that is interested in changing their program from on-campus, in person instruction, to online instruction may do so by completing a program change form.  Please note: Given the reduced tuition rate for the degree completion programs (Criminal Justice and Cybersecurity), students will NOT be eligible for any institutional grants/scholarships or merit-based aid that they were previously eligible for on-campus instruction. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Financial Aid Office for further information.
