The 3 plus 1 Liberal Arts BA program at SNHU is designed specifically for international students who want to earn a degree in the United States. Students who have earned 90 credits from an approved institution abroad may enter this program, during which they will earn 31 additional credits to complete a 121-credit degree as a Liberal Arts major. The Liberal Arts program emphasizes critical thinking skills and a broad range of education topics. The goal of a Liberal Arts degree is not to prepare students for any one specific job or career, but to help students grow as individuals and better prepare them to enter any field, no matter what their career goals may be.
