Since the founding of Baldwin-Wallace University in 1845, the United Methodist-affiliated University still today promotes diversity within the student body which includes both traditional and adult learners. Conferring undergraduate and graduate degrees, the private, not-for-profit Baldwin Wallace offers students more than 60 majors and programs of study.

In addition to traditional degree programs, Baldwin-Wallace offers flexible evening, weekend, and online programs/classes for adult learners. Some classes are offered in hybrid format with a combination of on-campus and online learning. Students can enter the online program in the fall, spring or summer terms with classes beginning every eight weeks. Asynchronous courses are taught by the same on-campus faculty and students engage via small class sizes and mediums like discussion threads.
