School Notes
Lansdale School of Business was founded April 1, 1918, by Walter E.
Wireback and Wilbur M. Frantz. Founded to teach courses which would
prepare serviceman to re-enter the job force after military service
during World War I, the school offered bookkeeping and secretarial
skills classes. Although times have changed, LSB's philosophy has
remained the same: to prepare students for the rapidly changing
world of business. Lansdale School of Business has experienced
increasing enrollments since 1918 and has moved several times to
accommodate the growing needs of the students and expanding
curricula. By updating and adding courses in economics, psychology,
business organization, and small business management, the school
continued to grow. Lansdale School of Business offers Carrer
programs in Allied Health, Business Administration and Computer
Technologies. LSB offers Certificate, Diploma, and Associate in
Specialized Business degree programs. Lansdale School of Business
is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges
and Schools to award diploma and associate degrees.
No matter where you choose to go to college you'll have to take some kind of standardized test. The GRE is often required for graduate programs, but it may also benefit your community college application.
Education becomes more expensive with each passing year so it is important to make smart use of your student loans and to minimize your debt while you are in school whenever possible.
