Welcome to New College LifeTrack. This program is designed for busy adults who never stopped wanting to earn a degree.

You’re already a student

Think of everything you have accomplished—maybe you have a spouse, a family, a job, a home. You’ve learned a lot to get where you are. This program is here to help you take that learning to the next level. LifeTrack enables you to take courses from wherever you are and around your schedule. You also have the opportunity to earn college credits for your valuable experience.

Your degree from Alabama

LifeTrack is your gateway into one of the top universities in the country. More than 2,000 students have earned their degrees from The University of Alabama through New College LifeTrack. It is the same baccalaureate degree earned by on-campus students with courses taught by the same faculty in a more flexible format.

Learning designed just for your life

LifeTrack is for adults with busy lives who are re-entering school.  You’ll have a personal advisor to be your guide, coach, and mentor from registration to your graduation and everything in between.  Take as many or as few as you want.  You can even design your own curricula by working with your professor to create an out-of-class learning contract. So you learn topics that interest you.  Learning in-depth with LifeTrack you do not select a “major” like other programs. Instead, you choose an area of depth study. This gives you a broader range of knowledge and a wider variety of classes. The depth study options are: Literature, Art and Society, (2) Science, Technology and Culture, (3) Leadership Studies, and (4) Community Studies.
