May I continue to work full-time AND earn a postprofessional MHS or DHS?
Yes! Our postprofessional degree programs are specifically designed for licensed OTs to work full-time and earn a degree on a part-time basis. Each 3-credit course meets for one long weekend - all day Friday, all day Saturday, and a half-day on Sunday. Students complete reading and writing pre-assignments, attend the weekend course, then complete a final post-course assignment from home. Students who travel, usually drive or fly in on Thursday night and leave on Sunday afternoon. Most of our students juggle full-time work and personal schedules, along with the part-time course work.
How much pre- and post-course work is involved?
The course registration deadline is typically two months prior to the weekend of in-class instruction so that students have plenty of time to complete pre-assignments. The actual amount of pre- and post-course study varies, depending on the course and the instructor.
When do classes begin?
We review postprofessional applications as we receive them. Once you are admitted, then you will register for appropriate courses. Our students begin courses throughout the year, depending on which courses best fit their personal schedules.
May I transfer graduate credits from another accredited university?
The director reviews transcripts and syllabi to make transfer decisions on an individual basis. Upon approval, transfer credits may be used as core or elective courses, but not to meet track course requirements.
Do I have to go through the admission process just to take one course?
No, if you submit just the Non-degree application form, then you may register for 1 - 3 courses. The Non-degree application does not require a transcript or copy of the OT license.
