School fits into your life-not the other way around.

Brown Mackie College - Kansas City makes it easy to take classes. We offer sessions in the day or the evening-whichever suits you best. You can work school around the other demands of your life-whether it's your family, a job, or other pursuits that are important to you.

College doesn't have to be a juggling act.

One of the many student-friendly features of Brown Mackie College - Kansas City is our unique pace. Rather than juggle three classes concurrently each quarter the way full-time students at traditional colleges do, Brown Mackie students focus on one course at a time. Each class is offered at an accelerated pace, lasting one month. No switching gears between different subjects; no pulling all-nighters to study for three or four final exams at once. At the end of each month, you have another set of credits under your belt and you're ready to move on to the next course.

You can start taking classes as soon as you're ready.

Since each month offers a new start, there's no need to wait until September or January for the beginning of a new semester. This is just one more way that Brown Mackie College - Kansas City makes itself compatible to the individual needs of our students.
