A new degree in health services is now available through your OPEIU Free College Benefit. This degree is available for the spring classes beginning Jan 11, 2021. With the online health services program at Eastern Gateway Community College, students will establish the fundamentals they need to work in nursing and other allied health programs.

Also, there are new FREE bachelor's degree completion options in interdisciplinary studies / humanities, business administration, early childhood education, education / intervention and criminal justice. 

Interdisciplinary studies is a flexible degree that allows students to build on their interest in more than one discipline, while providing workable options to meet your education and professional goals. These degrees are available for the spring classes beginning Jan 19, 2021.

Through the OPEIU Free College and Bachelor Completion benefit, OPEIU members in good standing and their families can earn an associate degree or certificates or complete their bachelor's degree absolutely free of charge. Every member and their children, stepchildren, grandchildren, spouses, domestic partners, financial dependents, parents, siblings, sons- and daughters-in-law and nieces and nephews can earn a two-year online degree or certificates, or complete their bachelor's degree with absolutely no out-of-pocket costs for tuition, fees or e-books.
