Adult Learners at our Richfield, MN, College


Many of the students at Globe University/Minnesota School of Business (GU/MSB) Richfield are adult learners. In the years since high school, they have been working, caring for families or serving in the military. What returning students have in common is their commitment to expanding their skills through higher education. They find that the flexibility of our schedules and programs allows them to continue working or caring for their kids while going to school.

Contact our Richfield campus at 800-752-4223 to learn about our college and our programs. Talk with a representative about your goals and your circumstances. Like other adult learners, you may find that our college is an excellent choice.

You are welcome here

We know that adult learners have many responsibilities. In addition to taking college classes, they work and care for their families. That’s why we offer many classes in the evening so that students can continue to make progress toward their degrees. It’s also why we allow students to attend part-time. Having options allows returning students to stay in school. We want to make it work for you.

Adult students bring a great deal to our classrooms. They possess real-world experience that a recent high school graduate simply does not have. They have been in the workforce, have raised families and juggled the many demands on their time that comes with life in today’s world. They have an important perspective that enriches the classroom experience for instructors and students alike.
