Introduction

Franklin Commons provides an opportunity for students in the Phoenixville and surrounding areas who do not have enough credits to enroll in Albright College’s Degree Completion Program (48 credits needed to begin), an opportunity to earn general studies and elective credits in an accelerated structure. Albright College has had a DSP presence in Chester county since 2004. Upon reaching the 48 credit plateau to enter Degree Completion, students can elect to continue their studies at our Pottstown, Blue Bell, or Media locations.

Favorite Thing About Being an Enrollment Advisor

Helping adult students in some small way reach their goal of attaining a BS degree.

Advice for a Prospective Adult Student Looking to Return to School

Relax...there is no doubt you can do it if you are willing to put in the time and effort.

Favorite Accelerated Degree Program Memory

My favorite memory is strongly encouraging adult students to stick with their education even when things look bleak. (So far, it has always worked out for the students I have counseled.)
