Students who have been accepted into the master's program may opt into the part-time program. In the part-time program, coursework and clinic experiences are spread over seven semesters. Students graduate at the end of their third spring semester. Click here for the part-time graduate curriculum. During the last two semesters, students will be assigned to externships. The externships require a 30–40 hour per week commitment.

Due to the sequencing and availability of classes and clinic placements, students who begin part-time cannot accelerate their program to graduate earlier than the end of their seventh semester.

Part-time students must be available to be on-campus for clinic assignments and courses. Although the majority of courses are taught in the evenings, some are offered only during the day. Clinical practicum is scheduled during the day.

Admissions criteria and procedures are the same for all students, regardless of whether applicants intend to be full-time or part-time students. Please click here for more information on the graduate admission procedure.
