Welcome to New College LifeTrack. This program is designed for busy adults who never stopped wanting to earn a degree.
You may not realize 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. We’re here to help you take that learning to the next level. New College LifeTrack enables you to take the courses you need from wherever you are and around your schedule. You also have the opportunity to earn college credit for your valuable experience.
Your UA degree — Welcome to the Crimson Tide family
LifeTrack is your gateway into one of the top universities in the country. Thousands of students have earned their degree from The University of Alabama through New College LifeTrack. It is the same bachelor’s degree earned by on-campus students with courses taught by the same faculty in a more flexible format.
Learning designed for you
LifeTrack is especially suited to adults with busy lives who are returning to school. You’ll have a personal advisor to be your guide, coach and mentor from registration through graduation and everything in between. Take as many courses or as few as you want. You can even design your own curriculum by working with your professor to create an out-of-class learning contract, so you learn what is of most interest and value to you. For more details, visit the Curriculum page.
