Peace Corps Fellows and Masters International students will also follow the schedule below.
This program may be started at any semester. Students have up to six years to complete the master’s degree from when they are first admitted into the program. The FAST TRAIN office will assist in program planning. The schedule below is a list of the course offerings. Students do not take all of the courses listed for each semester. We recommend that students do not overload themselves, especially for those who are working full time. No more than six credit hours are recommended per semester, other than the summer full-time intensive study semester.
