COBLESKILL – SUNY Cobleskill Ag & Tech is announcing the launch of its first fully online degree program, a Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) degree completion program designed for students who have already earned an Associate degree. This represents a significant milestone for the College, expanding access to higher education through flexible online learning while maintaining the academic rigor and quality for which Cobleskill Ag & Tech is known.

The Business Administration B.B.A. prepares students with knowledge to broaden their technical expertise and enable them to become effective managers in a variety of career sectors, including government, non-profit, public, private, domestic, and global organizations, as well as self-employment. The curriculum is designed to help graduates thrive in today's business environment, where companies increasingly rely on the expertise and managerial effectiveness of their technical specialists.

"This program opens doors for working professionals and students who need the flexibility of online education to complete their Bachelor's degree," said Dr. Darcy Medica, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. "We're meeting students where they are and preparing them to bridge the gap between technology and business strategy in today's increasingly technical workplace.”

Key program highlights:

100% online format with flexible scheduling

Designed for Associate degree holders, even if earned years ago

Prior coursework may transfer, reducing time to degree

Credit for prior learning may be available

The fully online program will maintain the same rigorous academic standards and requirements as on-campus classes. All required courses have been approved for online delivery, and current students are already completing coursework through online modalities. The move responds to strong enrollment demand for a fully online option and will expand access for students at partner community colleges through existing degree completion programs and articulation agreements, enabling more students to earn their B.B.A. degree.

SUNY Cobleskill Ag & Tech is now enrolling students for the Fall 2026 semester. Prospective students can learn more about the program and admission requirements by contacting the Office of Admissions at 800-295-8988 or admissions@cobleskill.edu.
