Our students are parents, young professionals, veterans, homeowners, and taxpayers. The roles you play at home and work are important, and we recognize you have many responsibilities to juggle as you seek a credential and career advancement.

We are here to support you on your journey. Our “Students First” philosophy places you at the center of our community. At Charter Oak you will engage with stimulating instructors and experienced advisors ready to guide you through the degree plan of your choosing.
