Frequently Asked Questions
Is the program 100% online?
Yes. Every course is delivered entirely online, and most are asynchronous for maximum flexibility.
Asynchronous course delivery is a flexible, student-centered online learning method where you’ll use the course materials like pre-recorded lectures, readings and assignments on your own schedule. This allows you to learn at your own pace within the semester deadlines.
Do I need to take the GRE?
No. GRE scores are not required for admission.
How long does it take to complete the program?
The online Master’s degree can be completed in two years (24 months) or six semesters. Most students opt for the two-year plan, but working professionals may take longer. An online graduate certificate can be completed in as little as one year.
Students have up to seven years from the date of admission to complete the program. If you need to pause or take a break, our Distance Education Support Staff (DESS) team can help you navigate that, too.
Can I take courses if I’m working full‑time?
Yes! This program is intentionally designed for working scientists and healthcare specialists.
What if it’s been a long time since my last college course?
Our courses are built for learners returning after long academic breaks. Our faculty and staff will help you step back into the classroom with confidence.
