Can I complete the master’s program as a part-time student?

Our program requires the completion of nine core courses and at least six elective courses (45 credit hours total). Our plan of study provides details about course requirements for the program. If attending part-time, the time to complete the degree will vary based upon how many courses you’re planning to take each semester. If you are working full-time, we recommend taking no more than two courses per semester; some part-time students choose to only take one per semester. Kent State University requires that all coursework for a master’s degree be completed within 6 years.
