Students who choose to complete their master's degree in two years usually take all core courses in the first year; those choosing the three-year option spread them out over the first two years.

• Morning cohort students typically take two courses each on Mondays and Wednesdays between 8:30 a.m.–12:45 p.m. One notable exception is that courses required for the teacher certification program are taught in the late afternoon or evening.
• Evening cohort classes are held from 6–8 p.m. Monday through Thursday
• Most courses required for specialization are offered in the evenings; some Integrative Seminars are held on Friday mornings and selected courses may be offered on Saturday mornings.
