Selecting your delivery option
When determining how and where you’d like to attend class or complete your program, consider how you learn best—if you’re an international student that requires in-person instruction, or how flexible you need your school schedule to be.
Once you have applied for your program in a specific delivery option, it is expected that you will continue and complete your program in that chosen option. If an extenuating circumstance arises, you will be required to meet with a student program advisor and leadership to determine if it’s possible to change your delivery method.
