Tuition is $395/credit hour, which includes e-books. Your total cost to complete your degree depends on whether or not you have transfer credits and your financial aid award. Most students will pay far less than $395/credit hour. See the Program page for details on courses and credit hours.

Each term is 8 weeks long, and full-time students take two courses each term, for a total of four courses each semester. Summer term courses are 7 weeks long. Full-time students could complete the degree in 18 months, or sooner depending on the number of transfer credits you bring with you.

We use VCamp360, an intuitive and easy-to-use system that is designed to allow you to focus on learning.

All course materials will be delivered electronically.

We know you are busy. As a result, all work is completed asynchronously (there are no chats). This means that you can spend time working on your assignments at 3 am or 3 pm – whatever works best for you. While there are due dates, you can establish a schedule that coordinates with your other commitments.
