Pathways to Leadership: Online BS OLL and Online MBA

Great leaders are vital to an organization’s success, now more than ever before. Managers, innovators, motivators and force multipliers are needed in almost every industry to drive meaningful change, inspire growth and improve performance. The University of Louisville recognizes this demand and offers online programs like our Bachelor of Science in Organizational Leadership and Learning (BS OLL) as well as our Master of Business Administration (MBA), both curated to help students who are emerging leaders develop the skills they need to succeed.  

One such student is Melissa Hill, a BS OLL graduate and a current online MBA candidate. She came to UofL with decades of career experience which earned her Credit for Prior Learning and prepared her for the next step in advancing her education. Melissa knew that she was capable of more and went on to pursue her MBA online with UofL. Melissa is on track to graduate in Spring 2026.
