services from private college admissions counselors, who can charge
fees of up to $10,000 a year, and private SAT tutoring and essay help,
which can cost fifty to several hundred dollars an hour. Program costs average just over $2000,

Education Unlimited's Managing Director , Robert Thomas, believes
that, "New York offers an informed population that uniquely values
extraordinary educational opportunities for their children. Students
can transfer units earned toward an associate 's degree or lower
division general education credits to National University and receive
credit toward a bachelor's degree. Units that are
completed as part of a transfer plan (the Intersegmental General
Education Transfer Curriculum or the California State University's
General Education Breadth pattern) or associate's degree program for
which students received a passing grade will be accepted .

programs require months of courses. While the state's public
universities have this agreement in place, National University is one
of a few private universities in California engaged in a similar
transfer agreement. The flagship institution of the National University System,
the University was founded in 1971 to make lifelong learning
opportunities accessible, challenging and relevant to a diverse
population of nontraditional learners.
