Since 1994, HELP University's American Degree Program (ADP) has successfully
transferred over 4,500 students to reputable universities in the US. At HELP, we
believe that our program offers an established and accessible transfer pathway for
achievers who are looking to further their studies in America. With the collaboration
and support of leading partner universities, we have designed a program to build a
strong undergraduate general education foundation for students before
transferring. We are proud of the success of our former students and we will
continue to improve and broaden our range of subjects which in turn will allow our
students to gain wider acceptance from higher-ranked universities of their choice.
If you decide to embark on your academic journey with us, we are confident that
you will find our program to be both rewarding and satisfying. Our lecturers are
passionate about their teaching. We strongly believe in nurturing our students
critical thinking and problem-solving skills as well as emphasizing hands on
experience and assignments.
With exceptional loyalty and recommendation, our former students have
repeatedly told us that their undergraduate preparation here was a profound
advantage. Thank you for considering the HELP ADP and I look forward to
welcoming you to our wonderful program.

What is a
Major?
A major is a specialty within a field.
For example, accounting is a major
within the field of business or
broadcasting is a major within the
field of mass communication. Your
major is a specialized subject in
which you become an expert
through study and research. To get
your Bachelors degree you will
have to successfully complete 40
or more courses. Almost half of
these courses will directly relate to
your major. The others will prepare
you to use your skills while
enhancing and broadening your
general academic knowledge.
