Welcome to the Online Bachelor of General Studies
Completion Program
at Youngstown State University
The online Bachelor of General Studies (BGS) program allows students who have completed an associate's degree to complete the bachelor's degree online. The BGS requires completion of General Education Requirements and two focus areas. Students who have completed an associate's degree are considered to have one of the focus areas completed. This maximizes the use of credit hours the student has already completed and provides an efficient route to the bachelor's degree.
