General Information

Complete your Master's Degree in a convenient online format without interrupting your career!

Have you ever considered completing your MA, but couldn't quite manage the schedule of on-campus classes?

This degree is completely online, allowing you to attend class and study when you have time. There are no required sessions on campus (except for the counseling program)so the degree can be completed from anywhere in the state, the country or overseas. The curriculum is exactly the same as our on-campus program and is accredited by NCATE. Because the online format allows for flexibility in scheduling, you are able to design your own program and take as many or as few courses as you want to each semester.
