Experts Weigh In on “Everyone” Cheating in College

A Message from the Office of the President

As we step into this fall season, I am proud to share that Unity Environmental University has become the first institution in Maine to announce fully-accredited 90-credit Applied Bachelor’s degrees for 5 new programs, an innovation that redefines what higher education can and should be.

This NECHE-accredited model trims time and cost by 25 percent while preserving full academic rigor, giving learners a faster and more affordable path to high-quality degrees. It is the latest example of how Unity is setting the pace for higher education: more tech-enabled, more learner-centered, and always deeply rooted in our environmental mission.

Historic Growth, Stable Tuition

We welcomed thousands of new students this fall, and thanks to our unique term structure. This flexible model means no one has to wait for this opportunity. It’s also one of the reasons Unity now serves nearly ten times the number of students we did only a few years ago, all while keeping tuition flat for five consecutive years and locking it through 2030.
