Students can complete the program in as little as two years as outlined below. A three year progression is also available, if additional time is needed to meet internship field placement requirements. Students may also choose a four year part time progression, with two courses per semester. 

Classes generally meet every week, on two different weekdays on the East Falls campus. Both the daytime and evening cohorts are comprised primarily of full-time students who enroll in 3- 4 courses per semester and take classes during their respective daytime or evening time periods. Part time (3-4 year) progressions are available for those unable to accomodate a full class load.
