What is the Portfolio Degree Program?
At DBU, we give you the opportunity to gain up to 30 credit hours for college-level learning you’ve achieved through life and work experiences. If you have four years of significant work experience and are 25 or older, the Portfolio Degree Program can help you advance toward your academic degree. The formal portfolio class takes you through the process of developing a comprehensive written academic portfolio that describes in detail the college-level learning and competencies you achieved experientially. Your completed portfolio will include a full student profile section, individual course petitions (requests to the University to grant college credit for specific courses), and documentation demonstrating your competencies.
