Our programs are designed to meet the learning needs of full and part-time students.

Most of our courses are offered from Monday-Thursday in the late afternoon and evening. A few are offered on the weekends. Weekday courses generally meet once a week for two hours. Weekend courses tend to be full-day courses that meet for four or five weekends or weekend days over the semester. We also offer summer courses from late May through early August.

We keep our classes small. The typical maximum class size is 20, but class sizes range from 6 to 20.

Our students come from a variety of undergraduate backgrounds and have majored in a wide variety of disciplines. Most have teaching certifications. 

Students who attend full-time take 9 credits each Fall and Spring semester and up to 6 credits in the summer sessions. For full-time students who start in the Fall semester, the programs can be completed in about 2 years. For students who attend part-time, the time will vary based on how many courses are taken at a time.

Students are required, however, to complete their degree within six years after they begin their first course.
