Additional curriculum information The minimum total credit hours for the program is 30. Students must complete all coursework required for both certificates. Students are required to select one main and one stackable graduate certificate to be a candidate for the MAS program.
The MAS program is a flexible, tailored degree customized to the differing interests and needs of students and working professionals. Participating in the stackable MAS program can provide students with opportunities to advance their careers through targeted credentials.
The MAS program does not have an application through the standard graduate application process. Interested students must submit a standard graduate application for each graduate certificate. Graduate certificates are eligible if they consist of 15 or more unique credit hours and were completed within seven years of admission to the MAS. Students who are interested in the MAS program or have specific questions should contact advising in the academic unit that administers their main certificate. Graduate certificates typically do not allow for financial aid. There are a select few graduate certificates approved to qualify for aid. Questions regarding financial aid for specific certificates can be directed to the Financial Aid Office . International student questions can be directed to the International Students and Scholars Center .
