Online and Continuing Education (OCE) offers students the opportunity to earn a Linfield bachelor’s degree or certificate.

Programs offered through OCE may be completed on a part-time basis. Courses are taught by full-time Linfield faculty members, qualified people from the faculties of other institutions of higher learning, or practicing professionals or business people. Adjunct faculty are selected by the academic departments of the university to deliver the quality education long associated with the traditional residential program of Linfield.

Linfield University offers summer classes through Online and Continuing Education to meet the needs of students enrolled in McMinnville, Portland, and OCE programs.
