Grammy-winning songwriter Sevyn Streeter was the first student to enroll in "B-CU Global," an online learning platform that expands access to Bethune-Cookman University's accredited bachelor's and master's degree programs.
According to a press release, Streeter's decision to pursue her degree marks "a powerful start for the initiative, which is designed to help people with even the busiest schedules pursue their education goals." The program is tailored for three groups: veterans, working adults and "reclaimed Wildcats," or students who started degrees at B-CU, but didn't finish.
“The ‘B-CU Global’ initiative builds on Dr. Mary McLeod Bethune’s unwavering belief that education should be accessible to all,” B-C President Dr. Albert Mosley said in the press release. “For more than a century, B-CU has empowered students to rise, achieve and lead. Today, through the power of technology, we are carrying that vision forward — opening doors for veterans, working adults and Wildcats returning to finish what they started. This is ‘B-CU Rising — All of us. All in.’”
"B-CU Global" gives students the ability to set their own pace for learning, including weekend and evening classes, as well as gives credit for prior professional experience and provides payment plans. Registration opens mid-October. Classes will begin in Spring 2026.
Students can pursue bachelor’s degrees in psychology, criminal justice, business administration, interdisciplinary studies, and national security and global affairs. Graduate students can choose from master’s programs in nursing, Christian ministry, business administration, organizational leadership, exceptional student education, and integrative environmental science. Additional programs — including Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Science in Education, and the Educator Preparation Institute — will launch soon.
