UNG’s Blue Ridge Campus opened in fall 2015 and offers a variety of educational pathways that include dual-enrollment courses for high school students, a full-time program for first-time freshmen with courses that will enable students to complete degrees in regional high-demand disciplines, courses for adult learners getting started in college or returning to college to complete a degree, as well as continuing and professional education programs for career growth or personal enrichment. Blue Ridge students can also take advantage of eCore, which enables them to complete the first two years of their collegiate career in an online environment.
